Hi there, We thought you might be interested in the new release of the collaborative federated social network Kune: Kune codename "Ostrom" http://kune.cc Kune is focused in real-time collaboration (not just communication), in building (not just in sharing).
This new release is fully multi-lingual, supporting 12 languages, and with multiple improvements<http://kune.ourproject.org/2012/10/new-release-of-collaborative-distributed-social-network-kune-ostrom/>. It is coined "Ostrom" as a homage to the Nobel Prize of Economics Elinor Ostrom, who demonstrated how the Commons can be managed by their communities in a better and more successful way than how the State and the Market manage them. Why Kune? Because all together we have built and maintained a free/open encyclopedia such as Wikipedia... but we cannot stop in an encyclopedia, we must aim for the complete free/open library. Thus, we need tools to build and maintain, all together, that whole distributed “network of libraries”: a free/open distributed ecosystem of resources, methods, designs, tools and knowledge that can enable a free/open society. We have the theoretical tools (e.g. Elinor Ostrom works), we have the legal tools (e.g. Creative Commons), and with tools such as Kune we hope to contribute to have technical tools that promote real-time peer collaboration for building and maintaining Commons in every field.
