I am sorry to interrupt , and this may sound like a question with an obvious answer,

but what are the goals we are trying to achieve? What are the problems we are trying to solve ?

As it happens, as a follow-up to part of the sprawling thread under 💬 #linking-together@2024-06-06, I have a couple of dozen tabs open with manifestos shared in the history of this forum, that I've been meaning to lay out in one place. But unfortunately I've gotten side tracked by all the other parts of that sprawling thread..

[June 6th, 2024 2:00 AM] l2wilson94: an interesting back and forth thread between me and <@UCUSW7WVD> on mastodon about how to build "better computing" https://elk.zone/mas.to/@TodePond/112568479669439114

It does seem clear to me that "we" have no goals that we share 100%. But there are a few goals that repeatedly come up..

I might join some project instead of developing my own, but I need to be interested in that project

There's a table somewhere with projects by everyone here, but (1) I don't remember where it is (some Google Doc?) and (2) I don't think it has "goals" as a column (though it should).

Yeah, I think manifestos are a different kind of beast. Shared problems do seem like a better starting point for collaboration than shared solutions.

There are 3000 developers here, if 1% of people are willing to join and develop other projects this mean that we have 30 persons which roughly mean that we can sustain 6 projects in parallel (5 per project).

time to unite 😄

Oleksandr Kryvonos 2024-06-09 17:36:17

if I under-estimate number of people willing to join other projects (hopefully not over-estimating 🙂 ) we can sustain even more projects in parallel or get more people per project

should we organise a sort-of jam? FoC jam?
