 ==Internal communication within open networks==
-Open and p2p networks require ''many-to-many'' communication systems, which often generate ''information overload''. Communication comes from all the nodes and must be made available to all nodes. There are no pre-established lines of communication following chains of command (like in the army), relations of power or functional structures (like in corporations). Somehow information must get structured and [[affiliates]] need tools to access it whenever they need it, while maintaining low noise levels (information that is not relevant at a particular time in a particular context).

 ===Fundamental principles for internal information systems for open networks===
 * Autonomy: the environment must not erect barriers to entry in front of any [[affiliate]]. Any [[affiliate]] is considered as a potential and is encouraged to act in the benefit of the network. For this to happen, we need to recognize other secondary principles
-** Transparency: all [[affiliates]] must have access to all information (to databases, where information is stored) and communications (to channels, or to exchanges of information among peers)
+** [[Transparency]]: all [[affiliates]] must have access to all information (to databases, where information is stored) and communications (to channels, or to exchanges of information among peers)

+** [[Openness]]: all [[affiliates]] must be able to communicate to any other [[affiliate]].
 Since information can propagate from any [[affiliate]] to any other [[affiliate]], networks develop problems related to information overload ([[affiliates]] are swamped by information and communication).

 ==External communication==
-In a competitive setting, compartmentalizing and keeping information secret makes sense. Traditional organisations communicate through carefully crafted interfaces such as public relations, marketing and advertising departments. The information put out is carefully designed by specialists, together with the organisation's branding and culture. Traditional organisations "speak" with one voice.
