# [jgmac1106] [mapkyca] you seem to be in Slack a bit, you can use the Known channel in iwc slack as a bridge if you are not in IRC much anymore

# plindner[m] Also highly recommend using Matrix/Riot to idle in IRC chans.
# plindner[m] jgmac1106: that Kirby license is a non-starter for me. Should I start a Doodle to find some days/times to find a good time for everyone?
# jgmac1106[m] Yeah. I didn't mind it. Free to any open source or educational use. I am using it to learn PHP to help with Known.
# jgmac1106[m] Or just choose one plinder. I find aound 4-6 utc to be best given our spread from Pacific US to the UK

# [benatwork] ... I'm also setting myself up to be on this channel more regularly.
# [benatwork] I saw some thread with someone who had never seen a camera film canister the other day.

# [kevinmarks786] There are musicians who still release tapes apparently
# [kevinmarks786] Seriously…: New Weird Britain: Urban Hinterlands http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07cvfb6
# [benatwork] sort of yes and no - it was pretty ubiquitous production
# [benatwork] kevinmarks: that looks glorious. Looking forward to listening
# [jgmac1106] mixtapes...like actual cassettes still popular in some underground hiphop circles
# [jgmac1106] wow...no film camera
# [jgmac1106] [benatwork] haven't been following any of the deadlines from previous discussions but ping me if something comes up and you need a hand.
# [benatwork] [jgmac1106] Thank you - I've been pretty much in family health hell lately, but I'm trying hard to claw back some time
# [benatwork] Known as a project has never had a great mission statement. I'd like to introduce a draft one for the feedback of this group. Let me know how this sounds; I'm trying to emphasize the decentralization / indieweb facets.
# [benatwork] Known allows people to create, share, and connect using a decentralized network of independent websites free from surveillance or central control.

# [benatwork] Nitpicky was what I was hoping for!
# [benatwork] That’s good feedback
# [benatwork] Also good
# [benatwork] (And installation requirements will be softened for 1.0. It needs to be as easy as possible.)
# [benatwork] Known allows people to easily create, share, and connect from their own website.
[eddie] and [tantek] joined the channel
# [benatwork] [tantek] Yep - I think decentralized is gone. That last version - "Known allows people to easily create, share, and connect from their own website." - touches on owned, and I think gets to the core of it.
# jgmac1106[m] And it has an Oxford comma +1 (forgot my phone works in front of stove)

# plindner[m] Know + Own = Known
# plindner[m] My personal motivation is a platform I can control and keep for a lifetime that interacts with the rest of the world.
# plindner[m] I also don't trust commercial platforms to be good stewards of my content. (Have first hand experience killing Buzz, Orkut and now G+)
