Heylighen, F. “Evolution, Selfishness and Cooperation”
Retrieved April 9, 2006
ftp://ftp.vub.ac.be/pub/projects/Principia_Cybernetica/Papers_Heylighen/Memes&Cooperation.txt Both papers are very relevant and look at issues on a macro level. Important articles giving a theoretical background of altruistic behavior, form a selfish origin. Important to this Case Study as I feel that it is something like this is driving the Typo3 Community. Kasper’s drive was to appease his religious belief but at a base level I feel it is akin to the altruism discussed in these articles.
