| rollout of Zulip.com as a community chat platform (alternative to Slack)? |
ARKA is qualified for a sponsored account with the following standard plan features. To do:
- organizational profile and link-to-zulip site logo placement; proposed hover-over text "Join ARK Alliance conversations with Zulip.com, an open-source, organized team chat app designed for efficient communication."
- jk: fast (after all), free, supports privacy, configurable bots; need to fill out org profile and understand how to engage with public
- all: ok with zulip rollout
- ss: we need alliance with OpenAire, OpenAlex, and PKP
- jk: I wrote to PKP (Juan Alperin) but haven't heard back; should I contact Jason Priem at OpenAlex?
- ss: yes, he said they do index non-DOIs
- cq: OpenAire seems mostly for academic institutions, so maybe not strongest case for BnF
- ss: the linked data side of BnF is very relevant to OpenAire
- cq: yes, BnF could participate in an OpenAire workshop
- ss: good to have a Zulip documentation channel ("how to")
- ss: people want to feel like the are part-owner of ARKA; similar to Omeka
