Dear all members of p2p-hackers:

Speaking as the moderator of p2p-hackers mailing list, I don't
consider this to be too "off-topic". I don't think I'll have to ask
anyone to quiet down just because they are going on about economics.
Honestly, I have always kind of thought that p2p theory and practice
was incomplete without the addition of a lot of economics, so I
actually kind of regard economics as pretty much right on topic for
this list!

Agree completely. What are financial transactions if not protocol interactions? What is a marketplace, if not an extreme example of P2P interaction? Given that our economy has become more and more mediated by network interactions, how can economics NOT be relevant?
