मुद्दे और अवसर: प्रतिभागी नेतृत्व की चर्चाएँ
The first round of the participant-led discussions took place on Friday afternoon. For space and rationality issues, the results of this first round are shown below together with the results of the second and third round that took place on DAY 2.
ऑपन स्पेस तकनीक का परिचय
Open Space Technology is a methodology developed by Harrison Owen when he was seeking feedback from a conference and realized that participants considered the coffee break the best part of the programme -- the one bit that he had not prepared for. What would this mean for designing a conference? What happens in a coffee break? You talk with the people you want to talk to, on your own time, following your own interests. Owen took these principles further and designed Open Space Technology (OST) as a method that has now been used for over 30 years in various conference and meeting settings.
Open Space Technology is based on self-organisation. Participants suggest and host conversations within the frame of given theme, and then share a brief report capturing the main key points and conclusions. The methodology has four guiding principles and one law:
चार सिद्धांत[1]
- 1. जो भी आता है वह सही व्यक्ति है...
- 2. यह जब भी शुरू होता है वही सही समय है...
- 3. जो कुछ भी होता है वह एक चीज है जो हो सकती थी...
- 4. और जब यह खत्म हो गया, मतलब हो गया.
एक कानून
- 5. Law of Two Feet: If at any time during our time together you find yourself in any situation where you are neither learning nor contributing, use your two feet, and go someplace else.
प्रतिभागीओं की अगुवाई वाली चर्चाएँ
Below is a list of topics proposed by participants during the Open Space Technology sessions. The titles were slightly adapted to give a better sense of their focus, based on the announcements made by the discussion host at the beginning of the activity.
The titles are displayed in tables which also indicate the assigned spaces (numbers) in which the conversations took place, the number of session participants indicated in the posted report, and links to reports made by discussion hosts in scanned PDF format of handwritten reports, typed on a word editor or posted on Meta.

Distilling Key Points
Conversations within the Open Space Technology session started to naturally produce key points and themes. As stewards of the Wikimedia movement, participants were asked to select and report the points that might have greater significance from a strategic point of view. These points were then clustered into ‘soft categories’ by the participants and refined by the core team – not yet solid themes, but somehow giving the content some form. At the end, participants were invited to look at the clustered key points and add relevant input they might find missing under any of the categories.
Result of key points (clustered in ‘soft categories’):

रयान मर्कली, क्रिएटिव कॉमनज़ का सिईओ
Ryan Merkley, CEO of Creative Commons (CC), joined the Wikimedia Conference to share his own experience of developing a movement strategy for CC. Below is an approximate capture of some of his key points:
- Ryan started by thanking participants for the privilege of speaking in his mother tongue. He framed the context of his talk: 18 months developing a movement strategy for Creative Commons, where he applied much of what he learned from the Wikimedia Movement and its predecessor in setting up their own movement.
- Ryan introduced himself as the CEO of Creative Commons, but also as a Wikipedian - with a few edits erased by a bot - and a Mozillian, affirming that we are many roles and in many ways part of of one movement of open access to knowledge and creativity.
- Creative Commons is known for open licenses, but people might not know about its education projects, advocacy, and making goods publicly available. Ryan gave the example of a partnership with the the Metropolitan Museum in New York which took seven years to set up.
- The heart of Creative Common’s organisational strategy is to “build a vibrant, usable commons, powered by collaboration and gratitude.” It is a simpler form of gratitude to acknowledge the creator of the work, and to do it enthusiastically.
- “It’s worth acknowledging that our work is political” - he said - “Open knowledge is a political act. We need to stand together to protect each other. There is power in that.”
- Creative Commons’ communities rose by individuals that met people around the world and asked them whether they wanted to be local affiliates with adapted portable licenses. Once there was an international license, we took away from the local affiliates what gave them pride. So we needed to understand: we gave people a head start (preparation) with a set of questions and a series of inquiries, we brought in research and did surveys around the world. What we learned is if we wanted to reach people we needed to communicate in their language. For the first time, content was translated in major selected languages, and that made a big difference.
- Talking about the strategy writing process, Ryan described that a 20-person drafting committee was a “special circle of hell” - moving from individual contribution to institutional settings and lawyers. First draft of the strategy was sent out for consultation, to then integrated all received comments and criticism. The Creative Commons Summit in April will bring the strategy back to the community in order to complete the process.
- “Your work is important - it feels like it’s just a bunch of sticky notes on the wall, but they contain important insights. It’s hard to think of strategy.”
- Making a dramatic pause, Ryan said: “You are weird... And so am I. The things we care about very deeply wouldn’t count as top 10 for most people. If I do rank top issues for others, we (strange people) know that open knowledge contributes to every single one. We are in this together - I am climbing into that hole with you.”
Questions and Comments from Participants
Q. = Question / A. = Answer / C. = Comment
- Q. We identify as movement but we don’t know what is behind it… Where are you?
- A. Ryan made a difference between ‘franchise’ and ‘movement’ - Movement revolves around shared values, using tactics that may not be yours. Movements don’t decide who comes in, it’s based on the values people care about. I would say I am in ‘the movement’ and so are a lot of Creative Commons people.
- Q. About the people that are not in the room. In your case, the consumers, in our case the readers of different Wiki projects. But another part are the communities - in the movement management side, there is a feeling that communities are doing something readers don’t care about.
- A. It is not only about editors and readers, but also those who produce primary sources, so we can quote them; we need journalism to be good. We need the internet to be reliable.
- A. If strategy is not frustrating and doesn’t give you the feeling that you left something behind, you have done it wrong. It should feel hard, and frustrating… and having hard conversations about what not to do, rather than what to do, because we are only so many with only so much time and energy. Half the strategy will be written in this room, the other half will be written as you implement it - you are bound to get some of it wrong.
- C. Copyleft, as a movement, is even less important than it used to be. Remix culture is there but not in the terms you wanted or liked it to be. We placed that in “dying” [trends] analysis.
- A. Copyleft as the set of licenses that qualify as free and open and don’t restrict uses like commercial use. I don’t think that idea is less relevant today. I will tell you that copyleft is on the rise, specially CC0, because some of us are making the case for what is the added value of that. It’s used by governments, and companies like Flickr, who got a lot more content once they adopted it… “Pick big fights with your enemies, not small fights with your friends. There are a lot of enemies out there, let’s point our attention at them.”
- Q. When I first heard about Creative Commons I didn’t know there was a legal component. I am looking for a space where I can share and access content without going through a corporate owned portal.
- A. Creative Commons lives in all kinds of companies like Flickr (Verizon). There is no ‘front door’ to the commons. We are trying to address that - features like boxing for photographers, one-click attribution... We need tools that support the use of the commons.
- A. There isn’t one archive - Internet Archive is the likely host. CC grew the way it did because it built on the tools that people were already using. CC search gives you the list but directs you to the platforms. If we become a competition for platform partnerships, we have to consider the impact…
- Q. How about the legal component applied to patents?
- A. Could Creative Commons have a space in the patent world? A lot of people ask for specific licenses for exe, .com, education…
