The #OMN project is about mediating the open/closed tension by NOT MAKING a hard decision on eather side but instated building out tools/infrastructure/process that bridges this divide. By keeping the stress in place we can build #openweb tools for social change. If we narrow this “choice” by choosing one side of this stress we minermise the impact of our work – we end by BLOCKING the energy needed for social transformation. ONLY by giving up out “narrow” and directing “desire” for control we can hope to exist in an “anarchist” moments/reality for any time and start to build a different world.
The #geekproblem is inward looking and tends to blindness/deafness.
The #fahernistas are a #mainstreaming closing of paths.
The #dotcons have no agency being closed dressed as open.
The #deathcult is the closesing of life and the embracein of fear as social control.
The #openweb can be on the side of “open” pushing the balance against “closed”.
#stupidindividualism is the worship of the #deathcult as is #mainstreaming #encryptionsists thinking as it mostly “unconsciously” pushes #mainstreaming closed agenders agenst balancing of #openweb working.
The #4opens are a foundation for the “open” side of this balance and are a strong “non” decision on things that matter to keep the stress in place.
The #OMN is a tool for keeping the open/closed debate alive and building this into a health core of social change.
Were are we with #indymediaback
We are slow on the #indymediaback test roll-out as we don't have the resources to support fast motion.
- we don't have coding resources to do the fast updating of code for userbilerty for real world use.
- we dont have a strong core coding group.
- we have basic server infrastructure in place, but for a faster roll-out we would need scaling sysadmin crew which we currently do not have.
- we need to look at the “big” #4opens ideas of the #OMN for long term.
- #UX needs long term planing, we are fine with the current #KISS approach for now.
- we need a way of mediating the open/closed invisible war that plays out in the #geekproblem view.
