Work in Progress

I added a notification to the website, that it is still WIP 😁 <br> Social Coding hasn’t yet been formally announced, and is not ready for launch.

I would really recommend finishing off the web page at least before advertising. I understand this is a volunteer-based movement, but it’s a volunteer-based movement that needs more volunteers. When I see things like this…

…I kind of look askance at the people organizing and documenting the movement.

The site is full of partially-complete entries like that (with this one looking like it was abandoned mid-edit and pushed to the CDS).

Your observation is correct. The project is pre ‘official’ announcement and still in preparation, but site is up publicly and that’s why it ended up here prematurely. @csdummi and I started the initiative, after discussing on United Software Development: A new paradigm? in !fediversefutures. You might say the idea was born on Lemmy :)

We have a discussion repo on Codeberg, but found a place on the forgefriends community. The website will be changed to position what Social Coding is and does more clearly and to enable the “Social Coding Movement” as our initiative will be called, to be crowdsourced, incremental and extensible. See: Positioning Social Coding and Forgefriends. We have a Social Coding chatroom on Matrix.

A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.

Fediverse is a portmanteau of “federation” and “universe”. It is a common, informal name for a federation of social network servers whose main purpose is microblogging, the sharing of short, public messages.
