@maloki I like the idea of a technology co-op. I think a good thing to compare structure to could be #NodeJS. They have gone through some growing pains in the last year as it relates to internal conflict and organizational woes. #AyoJs forked from Node for CoC and governance-adjacent reasons too. github.com/ayojs/ayo

I really like the direction you're going with governance, and the intentionality behind it. Great job putting this together. 👏🏼

@stephen Could you add something about this in the survey?

Like, I literally made the survey to have people put the links and their comments in there.

Thank you for your consideration ;)

@maloki Yes good thinking. Thanks for doing all this.

#ForkOffTogether update #4
TL;DR

A small survey about what makes a good CoC for you is now out!

https://goo.gl/forms/1tE5W9LKkKCzwT412

As well as info about what kind of meeting I want to invite everyone to:

@maloki I'm not sure I did it right (is 'I want to fill in another' for 'I have more responses' or 'Moar surveys later plz'? I took it as the latter and ended up with it wanting more pages...)

tl;dr though, FreeBSD's new CoC is absolutely an amazing starting point and if I'm the only one who suggests it, I'll be surprised.

@kithop I really don't want the links and stuff here, only want them in the survey.

If you filled in yes, you basically just continued in the same survey so we could collect up to 10 answers at once from your.

I had duplicated section 2 another 8 times, too make it 10.

I would love to boost the post with the CoC survey, but it isn't CW'D and I don't want to Discourse at people without one.

@Cobalt
This post is cw'd tho https://elekk.xyz/users/maloki/statuses/100175009423941188

@Cobalt yeah there's a whole thread, and always a TL;DR that's un-CWd but the rest of the posts should be CWd.

I hope that helps.

Emails have gone out about trying to figure out a good time and date for the meeting.

If you are interested, and would want to help out figuring this out, but didn't supply your email, feel free to DM me and I'll throw you a link.

If you want to see the stats from the first Survey I posted about them here:

A lot of other stuff is going on for me right now, and I'm kind of exhausted again. So I'm going to try and take it a bit easy these next few days, but still slowly progress on the work still required of me.

Best way to support me right now is to buy games via my Humble Bundle link, show up at our streams, or support me via Patreon/Liberapay/one time donation.

https://elekk.xyz/@maloki/100114908721453086

However, that support would be for me, not for the ForkOff Project, just to clarify.

@maloki Take it easy for a few days! There's no emergency and you've already accomplished a lot.

@stephen I sitll got some stuff I need to get done.

But I try to take it easy and get stuff done.

Combining the two etc.

TL;DR

DM me if you want to fill in the Doodle for planning the meeting, and if you hadn't submitted an email to the survey. (I'll send out the url to more people tomorrow)

More updates will come when brain has more power. Be kind to each other in the meanwhile!

#ForkOffTogether

Yesterday invites to the Doodle to choose a date for the meeting went out, as a followup to the emails that went out.

I had help sending them out, explained here: https://elekk.xyz/@maloki/100197765874135560

A date will be decided at the end of today the 14th of June (CEST).

The first survey has been closed.

I have been working on the Transparency document for a while. This only pertains to me, and who I reached out to, and who I asked for help.

I'm sharing this as view only, because a transparency document isn't up for debate.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/16RIuToGKZeZjxcGIDd1X9aacsMbtzBliFnGj8sadnNI/edit?usp=sharing

I have reached out to most people about adding them to this document or otherwise be transparent about my conversations with them.

I will not have energy right now to discuss it's content.

The Meeting will have a public invite, as well as email invites.

I do recommend that you help each other find out the details about this. I will try to keep them concise and add the relevant info to this update thread.

I will only reach out in DMs to people about it from a diversity perspective. My main concern will be reaching out to more PoC to help diversify this work group we're about to start.

As it will be a public invite, you can invite anyone you want.

@bobstechsite Ehhh. There's literally a question "Have you found this from another CoC or link" Provide link.

Just make use of what you have in the survey please instead of sending me stuff to look up here, I really don't want it to get lost.

@bobstechsite You can phrase it with "this isn't a line of CoC per se, but ... "

And go from there.

Pretty please?

@maloki understood. Sorry for accidentally being rubbish!

@bobstechsite No worries about it. Just making sure that we can get the info collected in one place, because I probably wont be the person writing it, and so that anyone who will work on the CoC in the future will have access to all the info they need.

You know?
