Lawrence Lessig: "Aaron was one of the early architects of CC. But his talent is much more than technical. He is a brilliantly independent and clear thinker; takes bullshit from no one; and has a deep and reflective view about all things Net. I’m sure this is true of more than one person, but he would make an outstanding addition to the board." 

CmdrTaco: "Interesting thing there and worth your time"

Cory Doctorow, BoingBoing: "Great article, Aaron." 

Ethan Zuckerman: "an interesting - though far from comprehensive - experiment"

Harry Brighouse, Crooked Timber: "All of which is to say that any of you who qualify ... should seriously consider voting for him." 

Rogers Cadenhead: "I thought I'd pass along Swartz's announcement because he'd be an excellent choice for the board." 

Ross Mayfield: "a proverbial outside the beltway candidate with a populist platform ... Perhaps we could help Aaron get some computing cycles or a research partner to take this further." 

Chris Sacca: "Aaron is brilliant and a very cool kid to be around. I applaud his project to sniff out the real data on who builds the Wikipedia. Cool result." 

User:Sj: "insightful and cutting ... It's great to hear a fresh voice tackle some of these long-standing problems, from the perspective of someone who has been around for many years and paying close attention, if rarely jumping into the fray." 

Joseph Reagle: "Fortunately, Aaron Swartz [investigated] and came up with the following novel result ... I'm looking forward to seeing these findings replicated." 

Andrew Gelman: "an interesting article"

Seth Finkelstein: "Bandwagon: Vote Aaron Swartz for Wikipedia Board Member (if you have 400 edits, otherwise you can't vote)." 

James Robertson: "yeoman's work ... it's cool to see that someone has gone out and investigated. I hope Wales is listening, because the current ideas about locking the site down more run counter to this reality." 

User:AndreniW: "I endorse AaronSw, ..."

Erik Möller: "If you don't want to vote for me, please consider voting for ..., AaronSw (yes, he's young, but very clever), ..."
