Dear All,
My name is Eliot Jones. I am a PhD researcher at the University of Nottingham School of Computer Science looking at farmOS in the context of digital extension and sustainable agriculture. Having investigated the platform and interviewed Mike and his colleagues, I would now like to reach out to users and learn about their experience and how it has shaped their farming practices.

Mike has invited me to introduce the research on the upcoming call, however, as an idea of what I need, participation in the study involves a video call of around one hour and, if possible, a virtual farm tour. I am able to travel and visit anyone who might be local to the UK or western Europe if that is preferred. In return, I can offer a $25 Amazon gift voucher or the equivalent.

Please message or email me at eliot.jones@nottingham.ac.uk for any further questions. In any case, I will explain in greater detail on the 9th of November.

All help is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks and best wishes,

Eliot

I didn't yet sign up for a Discourse account to contribute to the agenda, but if there's time, I'm happy to do a quick intro to Co-op Cloud, and recap the conversation Jamie and I had yesterday about potential to help make setting up new FarmOS instances easier. Or can wait to the dev call, or next month's community call

Morgan [Symbioquine] (he/him): me says:
The strategy I described on the Matrix chat is also pretty functional for some kinds of testing... i.e. push to a branch on GitHub, then edit the 
farmOS.org
 repo code locally to point at that branch, then preview locally via `npm run build && npm run serve`

It looks like there's also 
fosstodon.org
 that might be a candidate (no experience with it personally) 
calix|they/them: calix|they/them says:
yep, that's one of the larger ones

I'm also not eager to take up management of a social media account 😬 
calix|they/them: calix|they/them says:
there are some automated twitter-mastodon crossposters, they're a little controversial on the mastodon side
