If you think that Linux can move to GitHub or GitLab and still be productive at scale, I want you to read through the MAINTAINERS file in the root of the Linux source tree.
https://git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/linux/tree/master/MAINTAINERS
Every one of those entries has a dedicated maintainer in charge of it, applying to a subset of the source tree. All 3,000 of them. Many of these have dedicated external trees, mailing lists, and policies. Almost all of this development happens away from the LKML. Each of those trees has a path upwards towards Linus's tree, often via other trees and other maintainers, or towards the -lts trees. These trees are not necessarily authoritative either, and the kernel you're running might be its own upstream maintained by your Linux distro, unique from any of the releases on kernel.org.
All of it is based on email. And it *works* to drive the most efficient and largest-scale open-source project in history.

Community makes LibreOffice awesome! In August, the Spanish-speaking LibreOffice community met online, and had talks about Writer, Calc, mail merge, Zotero integration, and other topics: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2020/09/01/hispanic-libreoffice-community-fourth-virtual-meeting/

Wondering what we do to increase #supplychainsecurity? Adding some glitter! 😉
Making this video took me pretty long but I wanted to correctly underline how great and unique the design of this smartphone is :

𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗲𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 on the 'Consensus decision-making' wikipedia (EN) page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consensus_decision-making
I remembered how wikipedia is pretty much the galactic source of truth, and what's written there matters. I'm also quite involved with how people (esp. voluntary, bottom-up collectives) make decisions.
The CDM article gets 300+ page views per day, and spikes with occupations, etc: it's being used. It needs some improvements, and I don't want to do them alone!
Message me, or see you on wiki!
#mumble "desktop" client working on a #librem5 #dogwood batch.
Since the application is not adaptive, had to scale the screen to make it fit, and configure it.
"Continuous" transmission works better as you can just use the mute button then.
And yes, sound quality is quite good. But someone should work on a GTK adaptive mumble client :D
