*MODELS FOR COLLECTIVE SERVERS*
*-are you being served?
-----------------------------*

12 noon Sunday 28th November at HTTP/ Furtherfield
-----------------------------

In the wake of the FBI seizure of Indymedia Uk's commercial servers, 
Irational.Org, Furtherfield and Ivan Pope are hosting a workshop to look 
at models for 'collective servers'.

We wish to ask a series of questions regarding security, legal 
responsibility, autonomy, collectivism and the 'terms of engagement' 
between users and administrators of these data 'homes'.

With a reinvigorated notion of the 'Commons' through online information 
systems we propose to discuss pragmatic policy and constitution in 
relation to servers and their communities and arrive at some workable 
models that satisfy the geeks and the non-techies, the artists and the 
activists.
