OGB Means Open Governance Body

Assuming that you refer to this comment and ask if OGB fits the grassroots side. Sure it does… you are trying to get people interested for years on this idea.

Whether it makes sense to tie OGB closer in the particular initiatives this thread and wiki post proposes… I am doubtful for various reasons. One of those being you edited in the wiki post the following:

This is an idea that was put forward without #4opens consultation, it leaves out different points of view, and it’s likely pointless as it achieves nothing, power is not given up without presser, this is not in this path. What is your idea to move away from the mess to something more positive?* Hamish (http://hamishcampbell.com/2022/07/06/the-left-mess-we-are-in-the-is-a-hole-in-my-boat/)

(Note: I took the liberty to remove from wiki, as it isn’t the appropriate location to discuss (which is here). Also I removed your comment asking to discuss from below the wiki, because as mentioned in top post “This topic is locked, so that wiki edits will bump the topic to the top of the forum”.)

I don’t know what you mean by 4opens consultation or NGO proposals. Doesn’t make sense to me, frankly. This initiative is discussed right now and here. Also you seem to think it is pointless and not positive. In the past you have shown time and again you are not very open to collaborating. Things must be done your way, and that that means OGB or nothing. Plus repeating over and over ad infinitum how everything else is a mess and sucks.

To reiterate:

  • This thread discusses simple ways of bringing existing initiatives a bit closer together, while they retain their indepence. In this way a comprehensive navigation becomes available with forum, docs, FEP’s, articles, app lists and fedi ideas for anyone interested in the Fediverse.

If people are interested in an OGB, and this large-scoped project is taking concrete shape, it can be added to this. I’m personally having doubts, especially since you don’t really like this idea as you make so abundantly clear. DoOcracy is working, and feel free - as I said before - to launch alternative plans in separate topics.
