IMHO, the most advanced thinking in community networking is done by June Holley
and her organization: Appalachian Center for Economic Networks in Athens, OH -- http://www.acenetworks.org

They have even mapped out the small business/resource networks in the SE Ohio
area [> 200 organizations and individuals] and are keeping network metrics as
the networks evolve and change.  They are concentrating on three specific relationships/networks:
1) Collaboration -- who works with whom
2) Expertise -- who seeks out whom for expert advice and mentoring
3) Innovation -- who gets ideas from whom, and who do they, in turn, share them with
