about CfA Brigade

 

    HISNYI CProfile: Taiwan

CHIA-LIANG KAlthough CfA typically emphasize on working with local government, we believe in Taiwan it makes more sense working with the central government primarily, as it's relatively a small place, and most policies are made centrally where local governments are just carrying out the works.

  • Potential Brigade Name:
    • CHIA-LIANG Kg0v.tw (preferred), or CodeForTW - a g0v task force
    Chia-liang KaoI noticed okfn.de is listed as the de brigade, so I suppose it doesn't have to be called CodeForXYZ ;)
    Audrey Tang...and indeed the name CodeForTW would be quite confusing as there's another .tw project called CodeForTomorrow
    Audrey TangBrigade names seem to be free-formed, e.g. Open Colorado, Open San Diego

    HISNYI C2014 Strategic Plan

HISNYI CGroup Description

 

CHIA-LIANG Kg0v.tw is... (as of 2014Q2)

  • a community of deep open-source roots, with:
    • ~1000 contributors, ~50 daily-active ones, an irc channel of ~200 people
    • 10 major bi-monthly hackathons and ~25 other events
    • ~30 projects, ~20 talks by ~10 speakers, ~20 media coverages
  • composed of roughly 40% developers, 30% designers, 30% activists/storytellers
  • advocating the open-source collaboration model beyond software development
  • decentralized do-acracy

 

HISNYI Chence, g0v.tw would like to have task force acting as liaison in the community, which will:

  • CHIA-LIANG Klead the international communication efforts
  • identify local projects worth sharing and communicate with international network
  • share our experiences (collaborating with gov.tw, growing open community) in English
  • turn existing projects into internationally reusable components/apps
  • connecting projects with public servants in the relevant agencies

 

This allows us to have a more persistent contact window but still keep the community loosely-structured and decentralized.

 

The task force shall elect a primary contact person every 6 month.

    HISNYI CBrain Storming

CHIA-LIANG K(discussion here)

    Mindos ChengIs it suitable to list some major talks, like COSCUP?
    Chia-liang KaoConferences are listed in adjacent networks

 

    Mindos ChengShould IRC in public forums part?

(archived discussion)

    Chia-liang Kaosign here if you are interested (multiple is okay)
    Chia-liang Kaothere are likely multiple people already on each of the roles, and possibly overlapping. One thing we can do is also help translating the training materials into zh.
    ET Blue好像身兼多職耶怎麼辦?選一個簽嗎
    Audrey Tang好像除了 Contact 之外沒有一定要簽什麼
    Simon Pairole 和行事方法是相關的, 所以
    Simon Pai1. 或許可以問他們 local brigade 在小的文化差異下 role 可以有什麼樣的彈性?
    Simon Pai2. 在難以折衝的情況下應該是以我方行事順暢為優先考量?
    ipa chiu就直接按照在地方式囉,他們也是自然生成,分類只是比較好說明
    HisnYi ChenDelivery Lead 是 project manager, 管開發時程的, 不太適用g0v的model,除非我們有一個專案加速 Program, 每年挑幾個重點專案,募資加速開發,這時就要有delivery lead.
