"Maintaining, continuing and repairing are care work. They’re foundational to any open‑source project. Maintenance is the unglamorous work that keeps people safe, tools usable, and the commons alive." "People first, with tempo and budgets set by real lives. That's how the commons stays alive: not just through resilient code but through resilient relationships."
Matters of care - why maintenance comes first
It was not an easy choice to focus our crowdfunding campaign on care and maintenance as the condition sine qua non to consider it successful.

 Pretty excited by @npub1lzdq...urpr, especially by the Open Science flavor. The project in general also seems to be well thought out, in terms of roadmap or governance (putting maintenance first in the roadmap and making it strongly visible = 👏). Congrats to the team for the release and good luck for the next steps! (Edit: there's Ursula K. Le Guin in the crowdfunding campaign trailer, also, so you definitely should watch it) #Bonfire #OpenScience #Fediverse View quoted note →

Hello @npub12k0p...e2sz, est-ce que vous prévoyez une montée en version prochaine de beta.framaforms.org vers Liberaforms 4.2.0 ? Cette dernière version permet de disposer de champs de formulaires conditionnels, et c'est une fonctionnalité qui me serait fort utile :) Merci pour votre retour ! Cf.

"A new, federated, independent, web is being born before our eyes, running on Activitypub (Mastodon) and Atproto (Bluesky). (...) If the people building this new web are wise, they will take irrevocable action that will limit their ability (and the ability of their successors) to fall prey to the siren song of enshittification in the future. This is called a "Ulysses pact" – when you tie yourself to the mast so that you don't yield to future temptation." By @npub1fdrp...lvhs
