#Coops
Oh! Patch here for anyone interested in learning more about #Terraform and #Jitsi!! https://github.com/zinc-collective/convene/commit/ebbb61781b48ad08fa80cad4d0482eeb088dd21f
Mob-programmed with two of #ZincCoop's members today to move #Compensated's support for #Stripe subscription events forward.
End of the day we released v0.1.0.pre13: https://github.com/zinc-collective/compensated/commit/c0dda90119ddebfcc3dda1ab633391b3175815ff
And yes, it's not #OpenSource or #FreeSoftware.
#CommunitySource _shares ownership_ between customers, contributors, and maintainers.
It's an attempt to make a more equitable tech industry for everyone, not just the lucky few who get paid by their employer to contribute.
I'm considering rebooting my Twitch account and streaming work on #Compensated and #RecipeBox from 10 to 12PM Pacific every Wednesday with a semi-random cast of contributors to #ZincCoop.
Working title is "#CodeAndCoops" and it's intended to be kind of like a talk show where we collaborate and casually move design, code, and documentation work forward in a friendly, thoughtful, and considerate way.
Would any of y'all be interested in that?
I wrote up a summary of how I've been investing in cooperatives over the past two years in answer to a question ont he /r/cooperatives sub-reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/cooperatives/comments/fyw2ph/financing_a_cooperative/fn3kq5e/
One of the bootstrapped founders community I'm in (#ZebrasUnite) is converting to a #Coop!
Super exciting to see the #Coops movement growing!

I just updated the payment event handling package my product coop maintains!
Now we expose even more data from Stripe! https://github.com/zinc-collective/compensated/commits/0.X

_Finally_ got around to putting the #ZincCoop operating agreement publicly online: https://www.zinc.coop/operating-agreement/
It's not perfect, but it's reasonably fair. We're planning to apply a number of patches throughout 2020; including one which more broadly opens up consumer membership.
Did some infrastructure work this morning for #ZincCoop:
I added the #ghpages and #ncp node modules to the website so we have seams to apply templates / internationalize / etc when building the site.
- https://github.com/zinc-collective/www.zinc.coop/commit/9da6b2e9de8185a4613ecb255f95bff46bb1afe8
Refactored it:
- https://github.com/zinc-collective/www.zinc.coop/commit/2a8c544de7ee9353c86a9b2c4c777ecdc0da0c34
Fixed a redirect loop caused by #Cloudflare/#GithubPages fighting
- https://github.com/zinc-collective/www.zinc.coop/commit/6d7ec11218c8fe4f034d1b9be5523e7a7fa04ed9
Discovered #ghpages wasn't working quite right and added some debug info:

Today, three of us at #ZincCoop mob programmed on adding a bit more functionality to #Compensated.
Now it can handle _even more_ Apple In App Purchase event notifications! https://github.com/zinc-collective/compensated/issues/23
We had been waiting on adding support for these event them until we had real payloads; but eventually decided that it was probably worth adding in the support now since we're beginning to turn it on for production users.
If anyone is interested, here's a draft of the mechanisms #ZincCoop is using to operate as a multi-stakeholder cooperative
We're a worker-only cooperative at the moment ("directors") but I'm hoping to figure out the legal bits aorund contributor and community owners once I have a bit more bandwidth.
This is _way_ overdue, but I officially released #Nourish under the #ProsperityLicense.
https://github.com/zinc-collective/nourish
It's still early-alpha, but I'm hopeful to have a bit more bandwidth for defining features, accepting contributions, and driving features forward now that most of the finance and legal stuff has been ironed out for #ZincCoop.
#WorkLog / #Coop / #opensource
And bam! Now #CrossProcessApp is _also_ relicensed under the #ProsperityLicense with it's source code released here: https://github.com/zinc-collective/mp-crossprocess
#WorkLog / #ZincCoop / #coops / #opensource
I'm excited to announce that the #Zinc #Coop has released #PlasticBullet's source code under the #LicenseZero #ProsperityLicense.
The next release of the app will include the license text, as well as bring improved support for modern devices and iOS 13.
#ZincCoop believes customers have the right to exercise direct control of software they've purchased; and that sustainable economic models for user-facing software can include broadly permissive licensing.
Recommend me a CPA/Bookkeeping #Coop that works remote and has diverse leadership?
