I’m finally reaching the end of the podcast episode about the community survey results and heard the suggestion for a “book club” where the books are FoC prototypes. Um… yes please?? Is anybody already organizing such a thing? I ran a mass in-person user study of my JavaScript debugger Theseus in the form of a class to teach JavaScript, and though I mostly remember the bugs and technical gotchas of installing my largely untested software on many stranger’s machines, it also led to incredible discussion and muuuuch better documentation, and I’d do it again in a heartbeat.

I made the suggestion, and I've slowly been working up a reading list which is very specically scope-limited to the structured editing microcosm. Ive been wrestling a bit with the issue of coordinating what I assume will be a sequence of baroque set-up processes around the non-web-facing projects. In that sense it might inevitably become more of a support group than a book club...

Could you upload a ready to go VM to Google Drive or something?

Let us know if you need anything!

just came here from that podcast episode and wanted to check in if this were ever organized? 🙂
