This letter template is intended for sending to specific people in organisations with overlapping aims to our and whose governance structure has something to teach us. If you have a personal contact in an organisation then build on that contact rather than using this template.

This could be useful for contacting:

* OSGeo ( progress to date: https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/discuss/2020-September/039041.html )

Dear
 +
 
 +
OSArch.org is the Open Source Architecture Project. We support Free/Libre & Open Source software for Architecture, Engineering, Construction & Building Operations. We'd like your help in strengthening our organization by learning from your organizational experience. We are young and growing rapidly. After starting in February we now have about 800 users on our forum with 300 discussion. Our wiki has about 100 pages and 100 users. It feels like we're here to stay and growing.
  
== Fosstodon (Mastodon) ==
+
Now we're ready to begin thinking about an organizational and legal structure. This will allow us to seek and accept central funding, and begin sponsoring selected projects.
We should be bridging this with Twitter maybe using https://moa.party/
 
* Link: https://fosstodon.org/@osarch
 
* Account holder: [[User:Duncan|Duncan]] ( https://mastodon.social/@duncan_lithgow ), access [[User:Moult|Moult]]
 
  
== Telegram ==
+
If you have time for a chat please let me know so we can arrange something. Alternatively just hop into our forum and announce yourself.
A simple telegram channel that sends the news to the subscribers.
 
It is connected to the following  RSS feed:
 
* https://osarch.org/feed/
 
* https://community.osarch.org/categories/general/feed.rss
 
When a news is published in the rss feed, it is also published in this telegram channel.
 
It's done with Feed Reader Bot (https://thefeedreaderbot.com/)
 
* Link: https://t.me/OSArchOrg
 
* Status: the bridge between rss and Telegram should be done with an FLOSS tool/script
 
* Access: the channel can be managed nominating "administrator" a telegram profile. Today the administrators are [[User:Maxfb87|Massimo]], [[User:Duncan|Duncan]]
 
  
== Reddit ==
+
Our forum: https://community.osarch.org/discussions
An Unofficial sub that collects info and directs interested parties to the OSArch forums.
 
* Link: https://www.reddit.com/r/OSArch/
 
* Moderator: the channel can be managed through the "moderators". The current moderators are [[User:Duncan|Duncan]]
 
  
== Video archive ==

You can read more about who we are from our wiki front page: https://wiki.osarch.org/index.php?title=Home_of_OSArch
All our videos are archived by [[User:Jesusbill|jesusbill]]/[https://community.osarch.org/profile/Jesusbill jesusbill]. So if someone want to do a remix, or when we're ready to switch to Peertube it's all there.

I look forward to hearing from you
