3/21: Final presentations. We will kickoff a participatory process for deciding how much money to allocate to each project. This is still being designed.
as with all succesful co-operastion everything that we we would do thorughout rhis hackathon would be a reward in itself. If it was not it would not be worth our time!
Check-point event: teams can present their work so far
that would be a great opportunity to scale our reach and visibility within the alliance and the wider Pradigm Flipping movement
2/21: Build kickoff event: Highlight projects and teams that are moving forward into the build phase
the Build phase in our case would benevisioning and organizing collaboration with othere teams in this space to plugout and interoperate with the indyNet/Web/Lab and build their own IndyXxxx
Discussion of projects
we could provide an alternative for setting up discussions for for the IndyNet/Nao projects and offer support for others building bridges between loomio and the IndyNet/Lab
Aside we have explored fully the possibikity of using approaches that lead to indyweb and trailmarks to do full projhect comprehension tools and can combine thsew with interpersonal communication collaboration support
Proposals for projects can be submitted
that's what we need to prepare ship the current plan on the IndyWeb and allow conversations through those artifacts
Social interoperability
IndyNet is a new paradigm for social interoperabiity permanence, accountability and trust
Sovereign identity (e.g. adopting DID-based login)
identity is established and maintained recoverd via gossip networks with personal human connections combined with full provenance of interactions and permanence of recods
Agreeing on shared data schemas, to make it easy to export/import data
IndyWeb proposes an universal intentional instance first end-to-end workable framework for personal first, interpersonal collaboration in autonomous evergreen hypermedia spaces
Flipping the current paradigm based on schemas and APIs
instead create exemplars of extensible, malleable, ustomizable ready to use and extend framework that emphasizes actor autnonomy, privacy, trust networks based on Human trust , for trust where each component is exchangable and born interoperable
Technical interoperability & data portability across social platforms.
IndyWeb's primary goal is to bootstrap the co-evolution of Open Commons Based peer-produced constellations for a People-Centered Intetrnet for boundaryless autnomous deep collaboration
