Hi All,


Although I follow this list closely, I usually don't post because I rather
do so when I have a meaningful contribution to make. This is the case
today. We have just launched our peer-reviewed journal issue. I am a
co-editor in this project, together with Francesca Musiani, and Nathaniel
Tkacz, who by far deserves the most credit in this. Notably, there is a
piece in this publication from our own Amir Taaki!


Enjoy:


The editors are pleased to announce the publication of Issue #4 of the
Journal of Peer Production on the topic of Currency and Value.


All of the issue content is freely available at: http://peerproduction.net
