This makes me think of something that's been sitting in my quotes file for years:

"What one wants is to be able to talk with a diverse club of smart people, arrange to do short one- off research projects and simulations, publish papers or capture intellectual property quickly and easily, and move on to another conversation. Quickly. Easily. For a living. Can’t do that in industry. Can’t do that in the Academy. Yet in my experience, scientists and engineers all want it. Maybe even a few mathematicians and social scientists do, too."

I'd like this too. So far, I haven't found it. Both your link and TFA seem to be talking about something like that, so I'm hopeful.

It's impossible to have a system where inventors can capture intellectual property "quickly and easily," because after about a year there will be so much captured intellectual property floating around that every engineer has to become a patent lawyer and licensing negotiator to keep their own addition to the pile from infringing.
