Hi Alan,
No worries, I like tangents.
Infact, Im planning on spending time looking into the concept of
interlinking gemini capsules.
Hopefully, a body of knowledge and interpretions can bring out concepts
for project planning (such
as issues management). An early foray will include generating kanban boards.
When I discussed this with some people suggestions included:
- Using federating Git forges [aa][ab]
- Creating micro servers to capture and relay very specific information
=> https://github.com/forgefed/forgefed
=> https://fedeproxy.eu/
While I havent evaluated these Git forge tools, I like the concept of
people being able to propagate their revisions effectively.
I personally would be happy to see key Gemini goto lists off GitHub or at
least on alternative servers.
Finally, I have no idea how security issues get managed for in a
decentralised community. I assume OSes such as Arch
have their established procedures, which contain both strengths and weaknesses.
