As we build up our coworking space in Paris, and after the discussions that took place at barcamp Austin II, thanks to our friends from CitizenSpace, here is some information about a suite of tools that could help the coworking community.
The tools need to be opened, with a common core system that must have a simple API, and more specific apps around it.. like an onion.
The 3 main components are about :
This tools need to have slightly different functionnalities depending on their scope :
Components-> | The space | The workers | The projects | |
Local | Lspace | Lworkers | Lprojects | |
City | Cspace | Cworkers | Cprojects | |
World | Wspace | Wworkers | Wprojects |
We in Paris can work on workers/projects. Ready to set up a trac and a svn to start building together. We'll have a micro barcamp to discuss the specs in Paris.
