If one assumes that the existence of media with a continuum of positions,
between pure access and full publishing (instead of clear cut role division)
is desirable, what are the conditions for their sustainability?
What are the requirements for the information infrastructure (networks,
operating systems, appliances, content creation software, IPR management,
regulatory environment) to enable meaningful personal or community information
production and publishing?
What is the potential impact of development of information rental models,
such as pay per operation of access to contents (in contrast to previous
models of content distribution based on commerce of content objects)?
