Hi, Michael Altfield here. I was the sysadmin for OSE from 2017-2020.

Everything OSE does is transparent, so you can just check the OSE websites to see what everyone is currently working-on. OSE contributors log their hours in a worklog called “OSE Dev”. There you can quickly see who is working on what.

The above graphs show 4 contributors in the past ~10 weeks (one is me; we had some issues with the apache config recently). There’s no direct link, but you can then check the wiki to see people’s work logs (just search for the person’s name and Log):

I also like to look at the MediaWiki “Recent Changes” page to peak at what people are up-to as well:

I told Marcin about Lemmy back in June 2023. Another OSE contributor even created an OSE community on the slrpnk.net instance, but it appears to have been abandoned. I’ll email him about this thread to see if he’ll bite and publish updates in this community since there’s clearly interest :)

Also, shameless plug: I started an org that’s very similar in spirit to OSE called Eco-Libre, with a focus on projects to sustainably enfranchise human rights in smaller communities. We’re currently accepting volunteers ;)

thechadwick,

Thank you for the reply! I posted and then had an unexpected travel commitment come up that pulled me away from Lemmy, but thrilled to have someone with direct involvement jump in.

I couldn’t agree more, and it seems to me that OSE and Lemmy make a perfect match. Can’t wait to check out the wiki and thank you again for the reply! Hope you guys get flooded with support and keep carrying the project forward. What a great mission statement and purpose.

Reading it, it seems like you pay to learn and then actually building it requires much larger amounts of money than expected?

I’m also interested in this project. Looks like there has been some recent activity: opensourceecology.org/2024-product-release-of-see…

You should contact them about getting involved! I did see they had jobs a while back for a project.

Maybe they don’t have enough support.
