4. Sustainability is inherently open, peer-to-peer 5.
[i]n a constantly changing environment, sustainability is not
some ultimate endpoint but is better conceived as a continuous
process of learning and adaptation. [...] Sustainability is a
process ofco-evolutionandco-design that involvesdiverse
communitiesin making flexible and adaptable design decisions at

6. Linus Torvalds
"I think the real issue about adoption of open source is that
nobody can really ever "design" a complex system. That's simply not
how things work: people aren't that smart - nobody is. What open
source allows is to not actually "design" things, but let them
evolve, through lots of different pressures in the market, and
having the end result justcontinually improve."

7. In peer production, the interests of capitalists and
entrepreneurs are no longer aligned
"incentives of entrepreneurs (whether they work for free, get
consulting fees) and capitalists (who want to get a return on
something they own) diverge in situations that are mainly
coordinated through non-monetary incentives."
For example, Linus Torvalds: coordinating social activity. A
capitalist, by contrast, wants to get a return on something they
own.
