I'm working in the domain of technology and its interaction with law, art, science, society and communities. I'm especially interested in the domain of alternative and community driven developments, challenges, impact, policies and legal apects... which maps to the fields open source, open content, user generated content, independent game development, fan-made stuff, licensing and more. These domains seem to be often underdeveloped in WP, (ironically, as WP is itself one of them) due to several policies, established practices and historical decisions. I try to make here a difference and also get insight what are structural, internal WP inhibitors preventing greater engagement from these communities in WP. While inertia is a strong force, sometimes, practices and polices can be changed in WP... sometimes a little bit can make a difference already.

If you are from such a community and you think your project could and should be a part of WP and you are wondering why your project got constantly rejected, get in contact with me. I can maybe help and reduce the entering threshold, reduce friction and review what is possible and what not in WP.
