[1] In June 2005, Gnutella's population was 1.81 million computers [2] increasing to over three million nodes by January 2006. [3]
Peer production is also expanding beyond knowledge production, in the realm of manufacturing. [8] For example, there are now several types of open-source solar-powered 3-D printers, [9] which can be used for production in off grid locations [10] and other forms of open source appropriate technology like the use of biomaterials.
