Free and open source ideas (#FOSI)

It happens to us all to have good ideas but unfortunately we don't always have the time or the ability to realize them...

Instead of these ideas getting lost or dying we can share them and maybe they will be heard by someone in the free software community who is in need of inspiration but has the time and ability to realize them. 🤞

You can also share your idea and ask if people in the community are interested in helping you make it happen.

Seeing some videos online of people having frank yet cordial discussions about their personal views makes me want to have a similar experience. It can be a daunting and potentially dangerous task to get a bunch of strangers into the same location and get into heated discussions. I think it might go over better in an online Zoom-meeting type of setting. There's still the challenge of organizing the meeting, picking participants (hopefully diverse), and moderating.

If there existed a group chat platform that helped facilitate round-table talks I for one would give it a try. It'd be nice to have controls similar to Zoom but also some scripting to mute and unmute people in a rotating fashion so hopefully everyone gets "equal time".
