UnfinishedProjects is an attempt to create a community directory of open-licensed creative and technical work. We believe the commons grows stronger when we contribute small amounts to many projects rather than working in isolation.

We want to create a community with a culture that is different then the fast paced, low effort reposts - and instead build a community that encourages collaboration and thoughtful interaction.

  • I’m honestly not sure how we will handle it as we grow, but for now I think that posting your project in the forums is more acceptable if you want to discuss it, but aren’t sure if it’s going to be openly licensed yet. As for the wiki, we will likely be more strict about the open licenses, since it is intended to be more of a collaboration space where others will contribute and adapt.

    If you want to post about your project on the forum and you think you will likely pick an open license, just mention that you don’t yet have a license picked out and explain the situation.

    Like I said, as we grow - we may get more strict with this if it’s taken advantage of, but if it’s posted in good faith and stated clearly, I’m ok with it for now.



  • Yeah, I know a lot of people are skeptical with the name - and I get it…but part of it is the fact that we embrace the fact that a project is unfinished. The idea is that the projects are carried forward by the commons, and even if someone abandons a project, someone else might be able to pick up where you left off and carry it forward.

    I feel that the current open source and creative commons projects all exist in small bubbles - where each individual or team tries to prop up their own project(s)…the idea is to try and bring the community together and work on projects within an ecosystem, rather than in isolation. Essentially, have each individual, team, and project intertwined with the other projects within our community/ecosystem. Obviously, until we actually build a community with this type of culture - its just a pipe dream…but that is the hope and vision. :)
