This is a BoF being co-run by Pia Waugh, Robert M. "r0ml" Lefkowitz, Dan Callahan and Allison Randal about what that brave new world could look like. It is meant to be a discussion where everyone is going to -- in a very short, sharp session -- give a 1 minute (time pending) overview of an idea for everyone else, then we'll vote on which ideas to explore for the rest of the session :) Obviously we believe the topic is much bigger than can be covered in a BoF, but there seems a lot of interest to discuss future possible directions for us, so let's have a chat to kick things off!

Everyone welcome!

Ideas

Establish proper Liberal Source governance roles

Review current virtual 'government' bodies. GitHub, Atlasian, Debian, Cannonical. Identify what they provide.

Resolve conflicting tactical goals: e.g. privacy v. transparency.

Establish practices that encourage behavior leading to the goals

Remove incidental complexity (data-> function -> class -> file -> package) by expressing systems as graphs.

Represent contributors as citizens. Represent value as reputation (with an exchange to money)
