View summary
FediForum is Back!After controversy and the difficult decision to
postpone back in March, the
FediForum project has put in the hard work to make things right. The organization held multiple town halls, calls with community leaders, soliciting feedback, and establishing
a new advisory board consisting of a diverse background. After taking the extra time to get things right, the Fediverse Unconference is back on track.
“We are expanding and broadening Fediforum,” Johannes Ernst explains, “not just with an international advisory board that helps us connect with communities we didn’t involve before, but by providing more room to discuss the larger societal context of the Open Social Web.”
The event will include keynotes from
Ian Forrester,
Christine Lemmer-Webber, and
Cory Doctorow. After presentations, attendees will decide which discussion topics are of interest to them, then break out into discussion groups.
Here’s a large list of things talked about at prior events.
