The open source model of software development is that you have benevolent dictators who direct open source projects.
If one benevolent dictator doesn't do what the users want those can go and form another open source community.
States need a monopole on violence on the area that they govern. You simply can't have multiple states competing on the same area against each other and not expect to see blood. Especially if they are each ruled by "benevolent" dictator.

I don't think that's how it works. Is there a group of "benevolent dictators" in charge of wikipedia articles? No, everyone has equal power to add relevant information. If someone doesn't like what the past group of people has written, they don't go off and start a different open source article on the same topic - that would be redundant - they simply make the change where it needs to happen.
