Hello,
This message is especially for wikipedia users that
would be close to
Metz in july (9/10/11)
http://wiki.ael.be/rmll2003
while the 3rd Libre Software Meeting will take
place.
With libroscope team, we are leading a topic on
� Le libre, au-del� du logiciel (Extending Free
Software principles
beyond the IT sphere) �
http://wiki.ael.be/rmll2003/index.php/FreeSoftwareBeyondIT
I am looking for a wikipedian speecher for this
theme.
As a lurker^H^H^H chaotic contributor to wikipedia
there are a lot of
points that makes me think wikipedia is legitimate
on this point :
- sharing the knowledge using mechanisme closed to
libre software
methodology (letting anyone contribute and using
peer review)
- benevolent dictatorship model (Hi jim) with
trusted lieutenant (like
youssefan, alvaro, aoineko, ant ... for the one I
know) ;
- focusing on user and the ease of use rather than
technology ;
- making contributor have good practice by social
engeneering
(discussion, NPOV..) rather than with software
implemented rules.
- web/email centric coordination (the virtual roof)
- from Kaos Management to Knowledge Management ;)
- a living proof wiki technology can give large
scale structured website
:) : you don't need complex technology to build
large KM database.
The last point is the one I really like :
focusing on peopleware seems to be a far better
approach than focusing
on a pure technological approach to build such a
large scale project.
Anyone interested, and available ?
I have missed some points I know, and I would be
glad to discuss it with
you.
PS as a matter of fact, I guess that wikipedia is
such a rich project
that it could be appropriate to do more than one
speech :)
As an individual I would be really interested in a
conf on the
architecture and the technological aspect though it
is not the topic I
work on.
PPS je parie que �a va se terminer � pas d'heure au
bistro encore :)
Ah ben vin djou, je v'nais juste de me servir une
Maredsous...(dans le verre ad'hoc, achet� � Anvers il
y a des ann�es...)
B�, merci de me lieutenatiser :-)
Fi�re je suis :-))
(tu t'y connais en �pilation ?)
Right. It is awfully interesting...especially the
[[human capital]] perspective...though I don't see
quite well what Kaos means ? (chaos, I do).
However, I am living quite far away from Metz...and
working thoughout july. Perhaps one of the belgian
people ? Youssef is the best pick here !
Talking about Youssefsan...we very deeply regret to
announce wikipedians we have not been retained for
"Les Troph�es du Libre".
This is quite insulting :-). We simply were the best
choice. Perhaps they thought we were too good...
