Introductions

Hey folks,

We've let a few days pass to make sure that the people that wanted to
join the mailing list had the chance to do so. It would be nice to hear
from everyone on the mailing list thus far and understand the
motivations behind joining the list and what you hope the final output
and effect of this group will be in 1-2 years time.

My name is Manu Sporny and I'm the founder and CEO of a company called
Digital Bazaar. We have been involved in fair, copyright-aware digital
distribution and P2P digital payments for over 7 years. We have
interests in a variety of areas including P2P networking, the Web
Platform, security, cryptography, electronic commerce, banking,
crowd-sourced movements, digital distribution, mobile, social web, and
making the world a better place through Web technology. Our primary
focus is to ensure that the Web has a payment infrastructure that is
open and decentralized.

I've outlined some of my thoughts here, for those that are interested in
learning more about how PaySwarm might affect Automatic Micro-donations,
People-powered Politics, and Micro-funding for Start-ups.
