[JoPP-Public] Future plans

Thu Nov 15 12:39:31 CET 2012

Hi all

It has been a while since we discussed future issues and content. To sum up where we are:

FLOSS (F/OSS?) special issue
Maurizio and Vincenzo are on schedule
Release date: June 2013/July 2013

Debate: yes, they have some people lined up though not sure how advanced this is
@Maurizio and Vincenzo: any updates most welcome
Interviews: looking for suggestions. 
@Maurizio and Vincenzo: I have an idea. I attended an "open source" conference a while ago and there was a lawyer for the FSF there who does copyleft enforcement - if copyleft is threatened he sues or threatens to sue. I see this as a good example of someone concretely extending the (digital) commons. If you think this is a good idea we could organise an email interview. 

Value/Currency special issue
Francesca recently joined Nate and Nicolás Mendoza to coordinate. 
They are aiming to release a CFP before the end of the year, which they will circulate on this list for comments.
Release date: December 2013/January 2014

Comments/debate:?
Interviews:?

Other Special issues:

Johan has been in touch with some Swedish people who are interested in doing a special issue on piracy 
Possible release date: June 2014/July 2014?

Comments/debate:?
Interview:?

Organisation special issue, coordinated by Dariusz, Mayo, and Mathieu
No progress on CFP - I guess I'm happy that others are leading the way
Possible release date: December 2014/January 2015?
Comments/debate:?
Interview:?

Other special issues:?

If anyone has any ideas for debates and interviews (not necessarily related to content of special issue) please let it be known. It really is quite open...

There is still the surveys.peerproduction site to link to and interview. Could fit into the FLOSS issue maybe?

Re.the hackerspace documentation subproject, no-one on this list has expressed interest so far and since I can't take the lead for the moment it appears to be on hold. 
@Clément: it will happen eventually, not right now I guess.

That's all I can think of,

cheers

Mathieu
