Here we explore and develop the contributions that wiki may make as **an engine for commons production** in DisCO (Distributed Cooperative Organisations).
This includes **skillsets** in the collaboration, accounting for work **contributions** in commons production, the production of mutual **awareness** among DisCO members, skilful curating and governance in **commons**, the management of **pattern language**, and a **pod-based** design practice for a commons engine.
- Skillsets and collaborations - Contribution engine - Awareness engine - Commons engine - Pattern-managing engine - Commons-engine development pod
A number of pre-existing strands of capability and collaboration underlie this present commitment. We describe them here, and the skills and perspectives that they contribute to building an engine for commons production.
DisCO employs a necessarily complex scheme for the accounting and valuation of work contributions of several distinct and significant kinds. Here we describe the possible affordances of wiki for this ongoing practice of recognising and valuing contributions.
Here we develop our understanding of the capability to provide awareness within a collective, and of the gains to be made by DisCO participants, through awareness of significant events and patterns, as distinct from (and in relation to) the computation of value metrics.
Production in the commons, and literacy in commoning, are pivotal aspects of making the living economy; also, basic intentions of DisCO practice. Here we clarify how wiki may be mobilised as a means of contributing to literacy and capability in commoning: the **stewarding, curating and enjoying of commons** of diverse kinds.
Here we clarify how Valueflows/REA can be applied as an operational means of managing a **commons of pattern-descriptions**, and how wiki tools can facilitate the deploying and producing of pattern language, in making the living economy.
Here we clarify intentions, and contributions to a pod for designing a commons engine that exploits the affordances of wiki and REA/valueflows.
