Public Lab Research note


Portuguese language mailing list

by vjpixel | August 11, 2014 22:12 11 Aug 22:12 | #11038 | #11038

What I want to do

Create a Portuguese language mailing list.

Motivation

There are some people from Brazil (and I hope other Portuguese speaking countries) on the main Public Lab mailing list. Having a mailing list in Portuguese will allow people that doesn't speak English to be part of the community.

Questions and next steps

The main question is: there are enough people in Public Lab mailing list that speak portuguese and are interested in the creation of a Portuguese speakin mailing list?

Also: The creation of this list will improve communication and open space for people that don't speak English to join the Public Lab community?

Ives Rocha and I where discussing the best way to discover if the creation of the list makes sense. I think that we can test is asking if there are people on Public Lab mailing list that speaks Portuguese and have interest in the creation of a Portuguese language list. If there are at least 10 people, we think that it can be enough people the create a new list.

Why I'm interested

I'm part of innovation lab (EcoLab) that have projects that uses sensors to monitor air and water quality. For me it's interesting to share what we are learning on the EcoLab and also learn with other people.

That would be great! I can think of maybe 3-4 people who'd probably want to join! At least one organizer (http://publiclab.org/wiki/organizers) speaks portuguese too.

Hi VJ, this is a very clear statement, thank you! from an email thread earlier this year, there are six additional Portuguese speakers (in addition to you and Ives) who have been contemplating a Portuguese language mailing list: @Markos , @gufalei , @wagnerjg , Ricardo Abad, Lucas Bambozzi, and @P_Silva_82 . I just copied you into that email thread. I think this group has three interested organizers--which is very helpful. How have the conversations between you and @Ives been going?

Hi @Hiure , great to hear from you! What part of Brasil are you from? I'm going to copy you into an email thread, but let's keep most of our discussions happening here.

Hi Liz, Thanks for your effort to stimulate the integration of Portuguese speakers in the activities of the Public Lab.

Hi Hiure, I am ready to collaborate with a list of open knowledge in Portuguese, mainly with projects related to the theme "Water".

How can I help?

Best Regards, Markos

Hi Hiure,

I work in Rio de Janeiro.

Hi guys, I think we can start to speak in Portuguese here, don't you? (Non-portuguese speakers can write on any other language, don't worry! We all can use Google Tradutor to figure it out! hehehe)

Dou todo apoio à lista em Português! @vjpixel e eu conversamos sobre o tema e achamos que é uma boa ideia para começar a integrar e aumentar nossa cooperação - a comunicação fica muito mais fácil se utilizarmos o português.

Eu trabalho no Rio de Janeiro também, no Centro. Quando consolidarmos/criarmos a lista, poderíamos marcar um encontro para dividirmos nossas experiências e pensar em colaborações.

nas próximas 2 semanas vou ministrar um curso na Bahia e não consigo ir ao Rio, mas dou topo apoio para quem puder fazer um encontro presencial aí.

somos 4 na discussão aqui. somando @gufalei que pode ser pressionado a se engajar, 5. acho que se tivermos mais 5 pessoas comentando aqui, já vale criar a lista.

Oi Pessoal,

Valeu a dica sobre o evento de Ciência Aberta.

Vou ver se consigo ir na quarta-feira.

E como seria a criação da lista de discussão?

Qual o mecanismo?

Qualquer um de nós cria uma lista no Google, ou pedimos à Liz para criar dentro da estrutura do PublicLab?

Um Abraço, Markos

Olá, galera.

Como vão vocês? Tudo bom? Eu sou o Gustavo que a Liz menciona, sou agrônomo e atualmente moro no Vale do Paraíba em SP. Eu quero criar um chapter em São José dos Campos para: 1) promover o estudo de ciência entre crianças e jovens; 2) reunir pessoas que tenham interesse em ciências ambientais, inovação e promoção de conhecimento aberto; 3) Discutir propostas, projetos e pesquisas no Vale do Paraíba.

Um abraço a todos, meu email é gtalckmin@hotmail.com

Oi @gtalckmin, gostei das suas 3 propostas! Trabalho com mapeamento digital com adolescentes e jovens e acho que temos muito o que conversar! Como vc deve ter percebido, estamos tentando criar uma lista do Public Lab em português e creio que assim que ela estiver no ar este pode ser o tema de debate inicial: estratégias de divulgação e criação de uma cultura científica entre crianças e jovens brasileiros!

Tomorrow works great for me! Anytime. I put 4pm EST on the calendar. Skype? I'm hi.liz

@liz cool! Hoping @vjpixel either available!

If there's someone else reading us and wanting to participate of the call, please let us know it here and add me on ivesrocha at Skype!

Seeyou!

@ives @liz @vjpixel.

Hey guys, feel free to skype me at any time. The only problem is that I am using a 3G connection, so it won't be a perfect skype call.

As Ives and I were discussing, I am very excited about doing some ecology/mapping work with youngsters.

Cheers to you all.

Gustavo

great, our goal is to create the mailing list. Can someone look back through the thread to figure out what we wanted to name it?

Hi @liz, actually we didn't talk about it... I think we can name it "publiclab-brasil" or something using both "Brasil" and "PublicLab". Another option is to "translate" the name, using "Laboratório Público", which is better if we believe that another Portuguese speakers (non-Brazilian) want to join us.

Reply to this comment...


how about laboratóriopúblico-brasil or laboratóriopúblico-português ? Am I right in understanding that you want it to be primarily a Portuguese language list?

Is this a question? Click here to post it to the Questions page.

Reply to this comment...


I think laboratóriopúblico- is long. maybe we can use plots-brasil, most of the places' lists use this name pattern.

Reply to this comment...


I agree on VJpixel on that one: using the name pattern should be the best option. Just one thing: as the initial proposal was to have a portuguese language mailing list, I reckon we should not name it "plots-brasil" (even though I liked it). Maybe, labpublico?

Um abraço,

Gustavo

Oi pessoal,

Acho que a gente pode, de repente, abrir uma votação para definir o nome. Na terça-feira conversei com Liz e eu também achei o nome bem grande. Uma outra opção seria "publiclab-portugues". Pelo padrão das outras listas (http://publiclab.org/lists), acho que a gente pode ficar com a sugestão do Gustavo, "labpublico", e deixar a "plots-brasil" para um momento futuro, quando a gente começar a desenvolver parcerias/trabalhos especificamente no Brasil (ou por cidades)...

Por enquanto, temos as opções:

a) publiclab-portugues b) plots-brasil c) labpublico

Eu voto em "labpublico".

Reply to this comment...


não acham que 'labpublico' pode gerar uma confusão com 'laboratoriopublico', já existente?

haha! @ives knows how to create the list--let us know when you set it up or if i can help in any way. In the meantime, can i request you guys to make this page better: http://publiclab.org/wiki/brasil. We will be connecting the new mailing list (once it's created) to appear in the left sidebar of /brasil.

Oi pessoal, tirei uma semana de férias, por isso demorei um pouco para voltar a responder aqui. Estou voltando hoje.

Já que elegemos nossa lista para ser "publiclab-portugues", vou criá-la e em breve envio o convite para vocês! Fiquem a vontade para começar a editar a nossa página brasileira http://publiclab.org/wiki/brasil!

Abs e até mais!

Vamos comemorar!
