[...] Now, if they actually support people editing the rules and coming up with subsequent community revisions, that’d be pretty cool. Their wiki is actually disguised as a website, so I hope folks will realize that they’re just using a tricked out version of Instiki and can actually edit the thing. Beyond that, maybe they’ll go so far as to make MobiCamp a Community Mark and prove that they’re not interested in owning the event or using it to promote themselves… but I digress. It’s nice to see yet another expansion of the camp concept making its way into new genres, new areas of tech, and most of all, into new communities. Published in: [...]

Chris I’m hearing you mate! Regarding having a community on your side, I blogged on a similar concept last week in my Power to the… community post – totally along the same lines. Here’s the crux of it:

“Would-be copiers know launching a competing product or service will be at the mercy of community members witnessing the conception of the original idea. Original ideas remain the property of the originator, and it becomes a lot harder to â€™stealâ€™ ideas from an originator when youâ€™re up against a loyal and passionate community.

The benefits of community backing are priceless. What does your business have; a passionate community or a much less valuable customer base?”

Preach it dude, I’m with you…
