6. Are distributed architectures for decentralised data
management an essential element of such an
ecosystem?
% From more centralized to more decentralized
Data storage
From 88% to 95% store the users’ data in centralized servers
Users possibility to access and modify all data collected about them:
20% of the cases there is not possibility at all to even access personal data
9% allow access but not modify
71% allow their users to access and modify their data
Type of infrastructure architecture:
32,1% Architecture centralized not reproducible (central proprietary server)
Example: Twitter
45,5% architecture centralized but reproducible (FLOSS platforms in a central
server) Example: Wikipedia
2,6% several communities with their own node centralized in one entrance point
3,3% federated
5% peer to peer architecture
Not really!
But
great opportunities
for improvement
Yes! P2Pvalue!
Covers a real need!

7. How can CAPS solutions scale up?
Web (Barabasi) CBPP/CAPS
Power law Normal distribution
Alexa Traffic Global Rank
Google Page Rank
CBPP/CAPS has a typical range of value creation or “success”.
Which is relatively high!
50% at least 2.800 Twitter followers and 3.000 Facebook likes
10% of the sample could be considered very successful (Rank lower than
3000 in Alexa)
With many
relatively
successful
projects

8. How to ensure real openness?
CBPP are highly open.
But cases are very diverse in the way or mechanisms that render them open.
Data:
Index of openness to contributors: 50% of the cases rank more than 6 level of openness in a scale up to 10.
Index of openness is not correlated with time.
CBPP are highly free, too.
Data:
Index of freedom of contributots: 77,2% of the cases have at least two of the three indicators of freedom
adopted in the analysis (registration policy, participation policy, and user profile policy).
The more problematic aspect is the lack of rotation of roles
Data:
Only less than 5% of the cases affirm to have a system for frequent rotation of administrators.
… even if “democracy” generally is not related with capacity to generate value
(only in some specific areas more self-goverance favor value creation)
FLOSS, Community networks, Open technology, Collaborative writing, Collaborative research, Citizens media,
and Collaborative archives)

9. Which emerging paradigms for network-
enabled collective intelligence hold most
promise of success?
There is not “a” single formula”/model of
“success”. There are different features and
models that favor success.

10. What is most innovative in digital social innovation,
collaborative economy, makers, etc.?
The grass-roots invention of commons-friendly licenses, that
protect and expand its “philosophy” of production.
Data:
14 different kinds of licenses (Covering Software, Hardware,
Data, Content and more).
Most used license are General Public License (for software) and
Creative Commons BY-SA (for content).
Almost 50% of cases includes a copyleft (or “share alike”)
clause in the license.
Good idea that CAPS call
only fund “free” license projects
