Editor's Notes

  1. Think of what the rebels did to the death star when they had the plans! What if you had opened the Death Star plan up to the public and asked for insights. Maybe someone would have picked up on an open shaft to a highly fragile power source. Access to information isn’t the bottle neck anymore, the speed of processing and adoption is. Amount of information is doubling every 12 month, and accelerating
  2. Change of thinking: protecting information to retain value, to open information to extract value
  3. After visiting MIT and hearing a talk on open source linux development Term Crowd Sourcing has only been coined in 2006
  4. Forum, visualization Tool, Feasibility tester
  5. Resubmit multiple times 2x Southampton, UK; Canberra, AUS; Melbourne, AUS;
