Red Hat's CEO is dead wrong about the cloud
A dustup ensues after Red Hat CEO Jim Whitehurst asserts that the public cloud is ‘obscenely expensive.' Guess who's pushing back?
EXTRACTS
With over 1,000 pages already rostered under the Category open, we see a need to agree upon and implement a sub-categorization scheme that will help group related personalities, projects, technologies, and goals. Below is a list of proposed sub-categories offered for discussion (will post this bit to social media):

Proposed: that communities create Capital Asset Partnership Trusts (CAPT) in the context of a larger Golden Rule Network
The potential monetized value of equity in real property is tremendous. In the U.S. alone the equity in home ownership is $8.2 trillion. As well, there is the other huge pool of capital with the equity present in commercial properties that can be awakened with the same strategy. Unleashing even a fraction of that capital will have an unequaled and immediate benefit that will be felt all around the world. Just imagine the impact of a well directed trillion dollars of reserve capital multiplied through the fractional reserve system can have on our current and pressing environmental needs! And we can start today!

On Saturday at the Left Forum in New York City, Chris Hedges joined professors Richard Wolff and Gail Dines to discuss why Karl Marx is essential at a time when global capitalism is collapsing. These are the remarks Hedges made to open the discussion.
Category:Open Source Everything has been created. Here is the Intent statement:
By agreement with the P2P Foundation, those of us coming together to foster improved cross-fertilization across the various opens will use the P2P Foundation Wiki to create pages and links so that a culture of Open Cooperativism is fostered in this neutral and nurturing environment.
Visit Category:Open Source Everything. The public is encouraged to contribute substance to this Category at the P2P Foundation wiki.
The power of open source lies in the ability to build upon others’ work, and good documentation is the key to making this happen. The goal of open source documentation standards is to facilitate a collaborative framework which encourages others to contribute to a common pool of human knowledge.
Open product development has the potential to transform the economic system by making widespread collaboration possible. If there are easy mechanisms for viewing and updating open product documentation, products can evolve rapidly under the hands of many contributors. However, several obstacles often stand in the way of contributions and improvements. Below is a list of problems and possible ways to approach them.
Peter Joseph, Zeitgeist Movement Founder, has just agreed to be our inspirational speaker at Open Source Everything for the 21st Century in NYC in early December 2015.
We are moved and appreciative. He is raising money to finish the first of the Interreflections Trilogy movies and although he has achieved his goal of $50,000 we strongly urge all who care about open source everything — and a new model of Open Collaborativsm — to go here, now, and donate what they can. Thank you, Peter Joseph.
