Open collaborative design/What is the motivation to contribute?

There are many reasons why someone might want to contribute to the 'universal commons':

• They can find other people to work with them on their project, enable them to do things they couldn’t do alone, or significantly speed things up

• They are contributing to the wider the community that has freely offered designs for them to build upon

• Satisfaction that other people can benefit from their efforts

• People can customise things exactly how they want them

• Other people can evolve your design further, which benefits you

• The concept of 'copyleft' changes the way people think about to contributing to creative open projects

• Respect from creating a great design that becomes widely used
