Some of the people involved have done work on Ahau.io

Well, the Wikipedia deletionists have wiped out the article on Ahau;

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ahau (software) - Wikipedia

A while back I created an article for ahau.io;

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahau_(software)

I thought software created by indigenous people for their own specific needs was notable enough, but it seems the deletionists disagree. Does anyone know of any references that could be added to this article, that would meet the usual Wikipedia standards for reliable sources? News articles, academic papers and the like.

I was shocked to discovered that the pioneering Ahau.io project didn't have a Wikipedia article, so as an act of solidarity with tangata whenua and the data sovereignty activism that Ahau is an expression of, I just started one;

If anyone knows of other articles about Ahau I can use as references, in news media, academic journals, or other edited publications, please add them to the article, or let me know so I can.

Internet és més saludable quan moltes persones el controlen ✊

Per això cada mes ens trobem al Node #DWebCanòdrom per descobrir i aprendre sobre tecnologies lliures i descentralitzades 📶

Aquest dimarts coneixem #Ahau: una aplicació feta pels pobles originaris de Nova Zelanda que permet comunicar-nos sense necessitar controls centrals. Vens?

Amb @brunovianna @dweb

Node DWeb: Aprenem protocols descentralitzats amb Ahau - Escola Canòdrom - L'Ateneu - Comunitat Canòdrom

Actualment, sabem que uns quants actors descomunals dominen gran part del món en línia, però Internet és més saludable quan moltes persones el controlen. Això és el que es pretén amb la descentralització de la web. Les trobades DWeb són un espai per a conèixer i connectar gent, protocols i projectes en favor d'una web descentralitzada. A més, hi construïm col·lectivament la xarxa descentralitzada, experimental i basada en programari lliure del Canòdrom.A l’Internet que fem servir avui, les comunicacions solen basar-se en servidors centrals per emmagatzemar i distribuir la informació. Si volem tenir una xarxa amb menys controls centrals, hem d’estimular la comunicació directa entre parells, d’una usuària a l’altra. Això és el que fan protocols com el SSB (Secure Scuttlebutt). En aquesta trobada, veurem com funcionen aquests serveis i parlarem amb els desenvolupadors de Ahau, una aplicació feta pels pobles originaris de Nova Zelanda que utilitza SSB.Aquesta és la primera de les trobades DWeb del trimestre d’hivern 2024.Organitza: Digicòria, projecte col·laborador.

the #fediverse is (sort of) in a Forbes article posted yesterday about @rabble and #SSB:

https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaeldelcastillo/2022/09/11/jack-dorseys-former-boss-is-building-a-decentralized-twitter

its featuring a photo of @cwebber at #DWeb camp and includes mentions of @staltz, @manyver_se, Dominic Tarr, #Āhau, #Bluesky, #Mastodon, #ActivityStreams, Paul Frazee, and a bunch of other buzzwords that are bizarrely smashed together into an article. Still quite interesting to see this stuff in a mainstream publication.

its also posted on HN:

Jack Dorsey’s Former Boss Is Building A Decentralized Twitter

A little-known group of interoperable social networks has been growing in private for years, but now that an engineer behind Twitter’s pilot, Evan Henshaw-Plath has joined the fray, the parallel universe is verging on mainstream.

I'm helping #manyverse (and #ahau) with a private-groups feature for #ssb.

It just dawned on me today I'm the only non-STEM in a group of STEM volunteers.

After some frantic "you're not listening to me", I remember this article exists and what a godsend it is.

Things You Need to Do Before Hiring a Designer - Galleys - Medium

Bringing any employee into an environment where they don’t have the tools or authority to succeed is unfair to them and a huge waste of your hard-earned money. The following is an excerpt from You’re…

@humberto @bhaugen wow thanks, #ahau looks really interesting. I just came out of a 4-hour workshop on #CARE-principles and wish I'd known about it before. I looked around for the code and found it at https://github.com/Ahau-NZ/Ahau . But as it seems to be dependent on a single company. Could using any SSB-client be an exit-strategy in case the app isn't supported anymore?
