hi! I just joined social.coop. looking forward to meeting you all. things I like: learning (in general), science, Haskell, Rust, math, being outdoors, cooperative economics, the commons. I've primarily worked as a Haskell programmer. I'm now building infrastructure for reputation economics on Holochain, which we hope can facilitate specific, sovereign cultural articulation in communities. for me, this is a step along the way to a more cooperative economics #introduction
while I am at it: right now I'm quite interested in Dmytri Kleiner's concept of the Venture Commune (https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Venture_Commune) as a way to federate cooperative enterprises and create a membrane for "alternative economics", where different forms of valuation can take place. @bhaugen turned me on to the concept of Solawi, which I'm chasing down. if anyone is interested in such things, would love to hear from you.
Interested -- I think we need a food systems convo space, either by tagging posts and creating a list in Mastodon, or on Matrix/Element...
@Jeff_Piestrak @emi @appleseed @jgaehring @nicksellen @ofnusa
@Matt_Noyes maybe a "mini conference" on the topic of co-op/open source/software food systems? Present our projects for 5 mins each, then facilitated chat?
@mhueschen @bhaugen @Jeff_Piestrak @emi @appleseed @jgaehring @ofnusa
@Matt_Noyes @nicksellen @bhaugen @Jeff_Piestrak @emi @appleseed @jgaehring @ofnusa yes, I’m up for that!
@bhaugen @lynnfoster @mhueschen @nicksellen @Jeff_Piestrak @emi @appleseed @jgaehring @ofnusa Jeff Piestrak and Laurie Wayne have brought some folks together too, including Jamie, me, and @michaelafisher Sounds like there is some swirling matter that might come together...
@bhaugen
I'm always up for #solawi chat. Been making lame attempts to set up something here in the UK.
As you are aware @yova has been working with solawis
On matrix theres #csa:matrix.org
#solawi:matrix.allmende.io
Although theres not been much activity in either for a while.
@Matt_Noyes @lynnfoster @mhueschen @nicksellen @Jeff_Piestrak @emi @appleseed @jgaehring @ofnusa @michaelafisher
Yeah, would be good to have @yova in any such conversation.
We have experience with CSAs and food networks and food hubs, but Solawis are on another level and Solawi-inspired community cooperative-commons economies are a step or three above.

@dazinism hi! I am not able to find server matrix.allmende.io or its roomlist from my Element client (though I'm a newbie to matrix so maybe am just confused). is it invite only?
@dazinism I also don't find csa:matrix.org. might also be a newbie issue, or is it invite-only? thx.
@mhueschen
just tested
#csa:matrix.org and
#solawi:matrix.org (I added this alias to the allmende room) and they both work for me.
I also threw some switches, which might help them show up in the matrix.org public directory. If you still have issues I can send you room invites
@Matt_Noyes
Anybody in this group so far involved in solawis? See https://write.as/economic-networks/a-fractal-economy
