I've been glued to the @matrix Governing Board nomination form results since it opened 🤩

It's a wonderful feeling, seeing the nominations come in from many different people who care about Matrix and want to help make it better for one another.

Folks have been working toward this open governance for years now, and every day it gets more real!

June 3rd is when our first ever election results will be announced. Then the next phase of hard work begins 🚀

How do open source projects get things done? How do they retain contributors, attract users, and make technical decisions? All this (and more!) falls under the auspice of "governance". Shauna Gordon-McKeon explores the power and potential in being thoughtful your project's governance, and how expanding your view of what governance entails can create a virtuous cycle.

Hi all, Roel he/him.

An artist and designer with an interest in computer networks, materiality of the internet, digital community infrastructure, DIY/DIWO approaches, FOSS culture.

You might know my work from the LowTech Mag's solar powered server project https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com

Currently pursuing a # in Interaction and Participatory # at Malmö University. As part of that research I work together with actors in the cultural sector to co-design alternative social media infrastructures with/for them. These are mostly based on fediverse applications, so I am also interested in aspects of # # # and more generally how to transition to and improve alternatives together etc. This space is far from perfect and in some cases insufficient but we need to start somewhere??

I'm a founding member of https://varia.zone, and also part of https://lurk.org. With LURK we've been running a fediverse instance called post.lurk.org since 2018, for which I am happy to be one of the co-admins! As part of that I boost #, calls and questions..

:drake_like: This is introduction is really long because post.lurk.org has a character limit of 1337
