hello!

the way how to make a pad here:

this is the basic address:
http://pad.constantvzw.org/p/   (it's not working with the p/ in the address, I could only access it as http://note.pad.constantvzw.org/index.html -sophia)
     sophia: you have to add a name immedately, like http://pad.constantvzw.org/p/testing, sorry for lack of precision -reni
and 
then you add the name of your own document = you can write whatever you want and it gets created;
once you have that, you send the link to the persons who you want to invite to share this document.

you can always save your changes, so there is revision control, which means that you can go back to an earlie version, for example, if somebody deleted something you still wanted to keep.

attention:
    usually these pads have a "life time". this means: if there are no changes made in a longer period, the pad automatically is deleted, because it is considered obsolete; this period (usually 1 month) depends on the setting of the server, resp. the people who run the server and service; in our case here: constant.
what i usually do: i work on the text, then save it in the system (the 5-angle star in the right upper corner), and then additionally i copy it locally, as backup.

and then also check out other possibilities in upper right corner, like changing your background color

suggestions, how to involve more people, who are not in berlin (and therefore cannot join us physically)


suggestions for further people to invite, who live in berlin

i would prefer that sophia and penny contact the others; then all communication comes together at you two, and also i have so much other stuff to do and communicate with so many other people that i dont want to have that sort of responsability right now. this also makes sense in terms of being sure that everyone gets the same information & same sense of the overall project.

  1)  
  spideralex: spideralex@riseup.net
    she is part of the anarcha-server-project; she is also part of the catalan colective lelacoders, who did a series of great interviews with feminist hackers:

Donna's suggestions:

Cornelia's Suggestions:

    1) Karen Eliot (Hacker/artist/ open identity project)
    2) Rena Tangens (political activist, Digital courage e.v.)
    3) Claudia Becker (digital thought leader) 

Daphne Dragona's Suggestions (Transmediale):
     Sarah Kember / academic and author of life after new media (kristoffer has already mentioned her your workgroup) 
     Laurel Ptak / curator and writer , author of the wages for facebook after the wages for housework 
     zach blas / artist theorist queer + gender related stuff (not so much fem tech) 
     Carolin Gerlitz and Anne Helmond / academic social media scholar 
     Tiziana terranova 
     Erica Scourti / Artist 
     Judy Wajcman / academic sociologist 
     Shu Lea Cheang/ Artist  
     Ruth Catlow  - helen - ruth would be great
     Marc Garret
     Sarah Grant (subnod)

    Penny: From Daphne's list I suggest to invite to the workgroup discussion the following people:
         Laurel Ptak
         Tiziana Terranova
         Shu Lea Cheang
         Ruth Catlow
         Marc Garrett
         Sarah Grant (subnod)


helen: there is also audrey samson who will apparently be at Transmediale; i'm not sure how much she has been involved with server things, but she has been part of /etc/genderchangers & does interesting hardware/arduino art things. mail@ideacritik.com
- & Lara Blasic, who is in London, connected to Furtherfield, Flossie, Libre Graphics

Workgroup discussion is closed and only for invited participants e.g. the 7  of us, our suggested invitees from Berlin and possibly some people from Transmediale (see Daphne's suggested list above)

Hands-on workshop: this can be open. This means that we can work as a group either only the 7 of us or with some of the invited people from the workgroup discussion, but there may be the possibility of other people/audience audit. Another option is that 
we ask for specific number of people to register so we know in advance how many extra people want to take part in the hands-on workshop. If you think that this is really not a good plan, then we can have the hands-on workshop also as a closed  activities with only the 7 of us working on it. Let me know what you think.
