How do issues such as authorship, copyright and open access impact your desire, ability and willingness to engage in produsage, both personally and professionally?
Authorship and copyright wouldn’t really affect my participation in produsage. I think it’s one of those things that yeh, maybe once in a blue moon you’d get someone who did something uncool, but 99.99% of the time people would be fair, courteous, and professional. I’m thinking most of the time the produsage project itself would attract like people – both in terms of knowledge and skills as well as mentality or behavior.
Another thought - word of mouth travels fast and is pretty effective – just like other forums. Even in the broad world of the Web, I think shenanigans would catch up with someone sooner or later.
Also, I think these issues would be minimized with produsage since there is always a record or origination and participation – like the history aspect of the Wikipedia. It would be harder to falsely claim authorship.
