I often get ideas popping into my head. At the time they seem pretty urgent and sometimes even amazing ideas that I want to explore and write about. However, itโ€™s pretty tough to get anything done these days, for one reason or another. So, I keep my ideas here, so that I can come back to them every so often and see if maybe I can get around to writing about them.

  • Flattening the Stack - Now that we're all cloudy, what is the minimum stack that sites can deploy in order to maintain interoperability ?
  • Invasive species - So often, people or projects come in with the aim of "helping" African initiatives to "develop", ignoring the fragile ecosystem that has been already created. I'd like to investigate the analogy here with things like bacteria colonies.
  • The Missing Middle - We are building e-Infrastructure, not for ourselves, but for user communities. Who decides what is good architecture, what are the right tools, how we work together ? Let's suppose for a moment that there is too much top-down policy pressure and imagine what a good strong "middle" could bring to the ecosystem. What if e-Infrastructure engineers could organise and support themselves, for the greater good ?
  • Blog update - I would like to put in some styles and rework my Blog. (May 23, 2017)
