“…participants in peer production communities have many different motivations for jumping in from fun and altruism to achieving something that is of direct value to them. Though egalitarianism is the general rule, most peer networks have an underlying structure, where some people have more authority and influence than others. But the basic rules of operation are about as different from corporate command-and-control hierarchy as the latter was from the feudal crafts shop of the pre-industrial economy.“
