>  Editorial Team proposal
> Schock: 2005.26.7: This is a formal proposal to create a  
> video.indymedia.org editorial team. The proposal comes out of a  
> meeting on video.indy at the 2005 Allied Media Conference in Bowling  
> Green, Ohio, and a follow-up IRC conversation with Occam. The elements  
> are as follows:
>
>     * 1. Editorial team. We will formally establish an editorial team  
> for video.indymedia.org. The editorial team will function according to  
> your usual Indymedia principles (open, consensus, etc). The role of  
> the editorial team is the same as that of the editorial team for any  
> indymedia site: to go over the content posted and pulled to  
> video.indy, to highlight exceptional content (create 'features'), and  
> to hide spam (and probably porn and hate speech, pending creation of  
> an editorial policy, see next point).
>     * 2. Editorial policy. The first task of the Editorial team will  
> be to write a short, clear, statement of editorial policy that will be  
> posted in an easy to find place on video.indy. The editorial policy  
> can be adapted from one of the many existing IMC editorial policies  
> and should probably include some mention of how we will hide spam,  
> porn, and hate speech. It should also mention licensing (copyleft, CC,  
> GNU, etc. are all acceptable).
>     * 3. Features. In the long run, many of us share a vision of  
> features that would themselves be collectively edited videos featuring  
> clips, samples, and entire docs pulled from the video wires. However,  
> while there are a lot of great recent developments in web tools that  
> will make this possible in the not so distant future, there's still a  
> lot of coding to be done before it's possible. So for now, features  
> will be based on the familiar indymedia feature format: a few  
> sentences of text with an image and links. These features will  
> describe and highlight fresh, interesting video content from the  
> indymedia network.
>     * 4. How to make the features. The editorial team will make  
> features by editing a dedicated editorial feature page on the  
> video.indy wiki. Occam will make an include script so that the text on  
> this video.indy editorial feature wiki page is pulled to a startpage  
> special that appears in a box at the top of video.indymedia.org. This  
> will be ready in 2 weeks.
>     * 5. Meetings. The editorial team will make a regular IRC / Skype  
> meeting time, which will be posted in an easy to find spot on  
> video.indy, so that people can get involved with the editorial team if  
> they like. For now, the editorial team will also communicate via the  
> mailing list imc-video AT lists.indymedia.org (if that becomes a  
> problem we'll create a separate video editorial list) and in the chat  
> room #ivdn (#video might be more intuitive) on irc.indymedia.org.
