Une contribution intéressante sur l’intérêt du concept de « pression » pour analyser la #collaboration entre personnes dans un cadre collectif #anti-autoritaire
Pressure could be the phrase “you are wrong” without further explanation, spoken by someone with more reputation than I have in a project. It could be someone with the time for writing ten emails a day discussing with someone with barely the time to write one. It could be someone using elaborate English discussing with someone who needs to look up every other word in a dictionary. It could be just ignoring emails from people who have issues different than mine.
I like the idea of having “please do not use pressure to bring your issues forward” written somewhere, rather than spend time blacklisting all possible ways of pressuring people.
I love how the Diversity Statement is elegantly getting all this where it says: «We welcome contributions from everyone as long as they interact constructively with our community.»
