Dear members of jopp-ed:
1] 7/7 online-live event on Thursday
As you know JoPP#15 TRANSITION is the final issue of the JoPP. However there is scope for members of the jopp community to add reflections about the past or ideas about future projects until the end of 2022. An updated version of issue #15 will be released in early 2023. There will be an event at this time also.
In the more immediate future Panos is organising a 7/7 online-live event on Thursday 7 April at 7PM CET. I am not 100% sure whether I will attend at this stage as this is 5AM for me but I certainly will try! :-)
@Panos: might be a good idea to post a reminder about this to jopp-public?
2] Repurposing of jopp-ed
As proposed and approved last year on jopp-public, now that the final issue has been released, I am going to repurpose the jopp-ed mailing list for the "think tank" project I am doing with Kit and others. This means I will be changing the membership of the jopp-ed list. Any jopp-related business can be conducted on jopp-public and if it is sensitive in any way e.g. Panos' plan to create PDFs for all issues or questions around website archiving / infrastructure we can just request contributions on jopp-public (if necessary) and then communicate directly via email.
I will update the jopp-ed subscribers list on Monday 4 April midday CET. Thanks to all the members for their contributions.
I'll take this opportunity to express my appreciation and thanks to Panos for organising the 7/7 event and more broadly to acknowledge how he shaped this final issue in so many ways: from his proposal to have "complements", to the reflections about reasons for the journal's end in our editorial notes, or leaving the issue open for contributions, etc. It's meant a lot to me to finish the jopp in such a positive way with someone who has a deep commitment to the peer production community and a great understanding of peer production projects. :-)
cheers,
Mathieu
