Non-software uses of GitHub
by Jim Herbsleb 16 Apr '25

16 Apr '25

I’m looking for GitHub repositories that are used for things other than software, especially where users are actively collaborating rather than just putting together static collections. So far, we have found a few books being written, some musical transcriptions being error-checked, and some policy documents maintained online. Does anyone know of any examples of these or other categories? Any pointers much appreciated. Happy to share what we find with anyone interested.

AOIR Discord?
by Roo S 18 Dec '24

18 Dec '24

Hello! I'm wondering what AoIR members think of building a Discord? I realize that there are several platforms out there, and ironically we all are probably "too close" to some of the failings and/or opportunities of community, communication and digital space, but I would imagine that this group would probably hold a strong consensus that group email threads and listservs is an outdated way to share, organize, search for, and apply information. I'd love to connect more deeply with anyone who's interested. Here's a brief/simple survey to help me follow up and/or learn from the group: https://forms.gle/zbxmg5433r7LctKf8 Last but not least, here's an interesting article about the applications of Discord for better digital community practice: https://www.newkinco.com/projects/anitya-metaverse-platform Looking forward to connecting!

WEBCAST SEP 11 – IEEE SA – Pathways to Progress: Building Rural Connectivity to Meet the SDGs
by Joly MacFie 11 Sep '24

11 Sep '24

Normally ISOC LIVE notices are last minute, but here's an exception. Fair warning, as, for those who might want to participate, going through the Science Summit registration process may take a little time. For the webcast, I do it so you don't have to! Note that, apart from Talant Sultanov from ISOC's Kyrgyzstan Chapter, two former ISOC Staffers - Jane Coffin and Karen Mulberry - are involved. Stick it in your calendar https://calndr.link/event/VxfujZYJHj On Wednesday, 11 September 2024 at 7pm-9pm EDT (23:00-01:00 UTC) the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE SA) hosts a virtual session 'Pathways to Progress: Building Rural Connectivity to Meet the SDGs' as part of the Science Summit at the United Nations Gen… Read on blog <https://isoc.live/18288/> or Reader <https://public-api.wordpress.com/bar/?stat=groovemails-events&bin=wpcom_ema…> [image: ISOC LIVE] <http://isoc.live?action=user_content_redirect&uuid=8260af15493c7ee6a6b89f4a…>On *Wednesday, 11 September 2024* at *7pm-9pm EDT* (23:00-01:00 UTC) the *IEEE Standards Association <http://isoc.live?action=user_content_redirect&uuid=3107b2409d9b8c7244818d64…>* (IEEE SA) hosts a virtual session '*Pathways to Progress: Building Rural Connectivity to Meet the SDGs <http://isoc.live?action=user_content_redirect&uuid=d71bb7a0217efa1323e0e287…>*' as part of the *Science Summit at the United Nations General Assembly 7 <http://isoc.live?action=user_content_redirect&uuid=3adeee2841fad236d79ec7cf…>9* (UNGA79). In the quest to implement the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the enhancement of rural connectivity stands as a pivotal challenge, especially in underdeveloped and developing regions. This session will explore the role of standards and open-source technologies in transforming rural connectivity to enable better alignment with the SDGs. Experts will discuss how open-source and standards-based solutions can provide adaptable and sustainable technology options that empower rural communities, foster digital inclusivity, and facilitate access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities. By analyzing various case studies where open-source platforms have been successfully integrated into rural connectivity projects, for example the *Bolo Project <http://isoc.live?action=user_content_redirect&uuid=9d0e3a84e5e6d6cc905830be…>* in India, the session will illustrate the potential for standards and technologies to be used to catalyze social and economic development. The discussion will also tackle the technical and logistical challenges involved in deploying technologies in less accessible areas, including issues of maintenance, scalability, and communication engagement. Additionally, the session will discuss strategies for leveraging open-source technologies to build resilient infrastructure that supports rural development and ensures sustainable, inclusive growth. Emphasis is placed on the critical role of standards development leveraging multi stakeholder collaborations involving a diverse group of stakeholders to achieve a cohesive approach to address rural connectivity. The session aims to provide a blueprint for leveraging standards and technology to not only bridge the digital divide but also to make substantial progress toward the realization of the SDGs in rural settings. *Welcome* *Karen McCabe*, Senior Director of Technology Policy, IEEE Standards Association *Keynote* *Tom Coughlin*, IEEE President 2024 *Panel 1: Policy and Regulatory Aspects of Rural Connectivity* *Prof. V.

Extended deadline - International workshop on AI and surveillance in policing and law and order: Opportunities, threats, perspectives and cases
by Marie Eneman 30 Aug '24

30 Aug '24

Dear all, Following a number of requests we have extended the deadline to September 9, 2024. Authors will be notified of paper acceptance by September 13, 2024 at the latest. We are very pleased to announce following call for papers to: International workshop on AI and surveillance in policing and law and order: Opportunities, threats, perspectives and cases More info: https://www.crisp-surveillance.com/blog/243289/call-papers-ai-and-surveilla… Workshop organisers: Marie Eneman, Gothenburg University Jan Ljungberg, Gothenburg University Diana Miranda, University of Stirling William Webster, University of Stirling The workshop takes place October 16-18, 2024 at the Department of Applied Information Technology, University of Gothenburg, Sweden. Purpose of the workshop The purpose of the workshop is to provide an international platform for researchers from different disciplinary areas and academic levels to meet to critically discuss and reflect on different use cases illustrating AI-enabled surveillance in policing contexts. Our aspiration is to generate and share new contributions to knowledge around the existing, future and potential uses of AI, and their implications and consequences, in policing and law and order. In this respect, we aim to reflect on contemporary technological development as well as, and alongside, significant legal, organisational and political contexts. The European AI Act, for example, will play a role in shaping the regulatory environment. Issues relating to how law enforcement authorities navigate and balance the borderland between, on the one hand, the rapid technological development and recently extended mandate to use new technology as part of the authority's work practice, and the emerging comprehensive policy and regulatory framework in which the AI Act has a significant role. Balancing the possibilities with AI for law enforcement while adjusting and balancing the work practices to new regulation will likely create a set of tensions and dilemmas, and may possibly also lead to institutional conflicts. Publication Following on from the workshop the organisers will facilitate the publication of an edited collection on the topic of the workshop to the Routledge Studies in Surveillance book series [https://www.routledge.com/Routledge-Studies-in-Surveillance/book-series/RSS…] We aim to include all workshop contributions in this edited collection. Chapter contributions are expected to be in the range of 5-6,000 words. Important dates The deadline for paper proposals (extended abstracts up to 2,000 words) to the workshop is 9th September 2024 Authors will be notified concerning paper acceptance by 13th September 2024 Workshop takes place 16th-18th October 2024 Deadline for full chapters 3rd February 2025 Review and revision of chapters to take place in February and March 2025 Submission of final manuscript to Routledge, April 2025 The workshop will be delivered in a hybrid format, which will accommodate presentations delivered by Zoom, although we are particularly keen for participants to attend in-person. There is no cost to participate in the workshop apart from possible travel and accommodation costs. The cost of refreshments, lunches and dinner are covered by the host institution. Please circulate the call to anyone who would be interested in submitting a paper for the workshop and for the edited book! Apologies for cross-postings. We look forward to your submissions. Welcome to contact us with any questions - marie.eneman(a)ait.gu.se<mailto:marie.eneman@ait.gu.se>!
