Okay friends, a reminder that our discussion of Ours to Hack and to Own is a week from Firday, June 22nd, 8:00am U.S. Mountain Time. The top five chapters we want to discuss are:
Michel Bauwens and Vasilis Kostakis: Why Platform Co-ops Should Be Open Co-ops
Janelle Orsi: Three Essential Building Blocks for Your Platform Cooperative
Mayo Fuster Morell: Toward a Theory of Value for Platform Cooperatives
David Bollier: From Open Access to Digital Commons
Micky Metts: Meet Your Friendly Neighborhood Tech Co-op
These are all incredibly relevant to ongoing discussions about social.coop, Mastodon, github/lab, and more. Let's use riot.im with etherpad and jitsi.

@mattnoyes Does it matter that I haven’t the faintest idea what etherpad or jitsi might be? Are they tied to an OS? Am a chat room novice, also - so likely to take a back seat.

Have not read the book yet. From titles, I might want to open on the Morell. But am a chatroom novice, so would be glad to have another person alongside on this.
