I've sorted out about 4000 items on a hard drive (had to take out the copyright ones belonging to eg professional photographers).

Its attractive to geek desire for order. Pre-digested is a problem. Ps. It should take a few hours to copy a big data set. +So sooner the better to get started + +R: I'm not sure of the size but not more than 100gb Most of it is docs because the video is on people's own accounts + + +H: But the archive is supposed to have offline copys of all the content. You need as much redundancy as possible. Do you have a list of links to the other data stores I could download them at hackspace. + + +R: That would take a while, and I haven't got time right now.

Do you personally not want a #4opens project? If so I can refocus these tech meetups, but it's a waste of the remaining tech budget that I find deeply upsetting. + +H: Am meeting the **** guy tomorrow. + + +R: You have the entirety of the tech budget to do whatever you like with.

I think the Resistance archive geeks will try to design that in. +Just to clarify, we don't disagree about the desired end result. But it's still limited what we ourselves can upload of people's copyright material. Re-tagging or sorting stuff that comes in through RSS is not a problem. I will when I get time create a long list of source accounts. You could do that yourself as well though. + +H: The exhibition and archiving was set up with the #4opens at its core. Open Licence and open data are 2 of the opens... have a think about this for a bit. +Think about open process at the same time. + + +Ok. I will refocus the meetups. + +#BLOCKED
