Hi folks, (01)
I wanted to welcome you all to the patterns@collab.blueoxen.net
mailing list, a forum for discussing patterns of collaboration and
community-building. We have a great set of folks on this list, and
I'm looking forward to some excellent learning and discussion. (02)
The purpose of this list is to mine for patterns of collaboration and
to develop a corresponding pattern language. I expect discussion to
be both broad and focused. I don't want to shy away from difficult
and important questions (the first of which is to define
collaboration), but I also want to keep the eye on the prize. To help
achieve the latter, I expect regular, bounded goals to emerge from our
discussions, the first of which is to prepare for next week's
ChiliPLoP conference. (03)
To augment this discussion, we have a Wiki. (04)
http://collab.blueoxen.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?PatternsWorkGroup (05)
I encourage people to use and contribute to it regularly. For those
of you with RSS aggregators, you can get RecentChanges updates by
subscribing to: (06)
http://collab.blueoxen.net/rss/wiki.rdf (07)
This list comprises of members of Blue Oxen's Collaboration
Collaboratory, members of the Hillside Group, and a few others with
whom I've interacted about this topic. A complete list is on the Wiki
page above. (08)
Looking forward to some great discussions! (09)
