Draft message for journalists (ProjPM, ProjHastings, ProjSwartz)

You're looking at an almost-ready-to-launch reboot of ProjPM, as well as a launch of ProjHastings and ProjSwartz.

David and I are putting the final touches on the staging wiki, with rich and high-context assistance from people like Anagram.

Status: we believe we may be ready to launch by next week, possibly earlier.

When he feels we are ready, Barrett Brown will mass-email the large number of Pursuance followers and others, and they will be directed to the following readme, which will show them how to join our public IRC instance:

When they join our public IRC, there will be a MOTD message, and it will contain a link to the following page, which provides some orientation as well as a list of research tools provided by many of y'all:

(If you have any recommended edits, please pass them along)

We anticipate people will self-select which IRC channels they'd like to participate in, and a number of them will pursue contributing as researchers, under our guidance within the three projects.

Some of these collaborations will be orchestrated within smaller IRC channels, or in Signal groups, on Element/Matrix, Telegram, face-to-face, etc.

Prior recorded sessions are at the following link (and notes are in the description for each weekly video):

In case you'd like to take a look: the following link opens BB's current page on the resurrected Project PM wiki (needs link editing):

Finally, I want to give some props to the following people: @Kirtaner for providing the staging server resources as well as technical assistance, and @Gregg Housh for guidance regarding tools.

@zoom @Filibuster Keaton @Pete and @Christopher Knall provided some very valuable 1:1 direction to ensure we were properly calibrated in our efforts to land strong and prepare to scale.

@AnonOps PDX Housing COA @Bryce Lynch @Dan Feidt ~hongpong @Doc Rocket @Joe Fionda @Karma161 @Fongaboo @Lev @nativebuddha @Ozark Anon @SomeDudeFromTX @SplendidSpoon @Vornaam Achternaam @ThatFuckingGuy and others for proving valuable wisdom and information on how to properly research topics.

And not least in any manner, @David who has labored in support of this re-launch almost every day for weeks.

If I missed anyone, I apologize, but I want to note something important:

Look at the breadth and depth of accomplishments listed above; you should see evidence of your own unique contribution in the work we're about to launch.

It's a real "united as one, divided by zero," you feel me? We could not have accomplished this without our collective collaboration, which we did through the holidays, the new year, and during an attempted coup.

If we get our wishes, we'll soon receive a large number of eager volunteers. Let's put some thought into what goes into the second major release, and again: if you see anything that needs edited, fixed, re-formatted, please let me and David know.
