Thanks for the link.
I remember the e-cology name, so I understand why you like this theory.
It deals with something like "what are the condition for a wide group of
ants to behave like an ant colony". What are the "pheromones" ?

Hi Philippe,
Have a look at complex adaptive systems theory and evolutionary
ecologyit is very connected to FOSS and your webmergence concept.
