We are here met for a political object, and discussion involves political terms, many of which may be unfamiliar to those with predominantly technical backgrounds.
Politics is a complex subject and an old one, and much has been written about its practice and the establishment of political communities. Perhaps some good general sources should be listed here.
The topic of emergent politics and large group dynamics within online communities is a new one; it is only recently that any online community or and eng:group entity grew big enough, long enough, to display these dynamics.
