Pilot: Building a founding committee
7 Feb 2023: We have an organized founding/management committee, as well as an advisory board (see Our team). We are focusing on pushing research through the evaluation pipeline, communicating this output, and making it useful. We have a working division of labor, e.g., among "managing editors," for specific papers. We are likely to expand our team after our pilot, conditional on further funding.
Progress: the team (continual update)
Key elements of plan
How was this founding committee recruited?
The creation of an action plan can be seen in the Gdoc discussion "Procedure for choosing committee"
First: direct outreach to a list of pivotal, prominent people
Assemble a list of the most relevant and respected people, using more or less objective criteria and justification.
Ask to join founding committee.
Ask to join list of supporters.
Add people who have made past contributions.
28 May 2022: The above has mostly been done, at least in terms of people attending the first meeting. We probably need a more systematic approach to getting the list of supporters.
Second: public call for interest
Further posts on social media, academic websites and message boards, etc.
