United Federation of Instances Proposal
https://gitlab.com/ufoi/constitution
I tagged below everyone who asked me to tag them. I have now started a gitlab group and project where we can discuss the #UFoI proposal transparently and with a good recorded history.
Please start discussions by creating issues, and any edits you have to the proposal please edit on gitlab and submit as a merge request, which can then be discussed.
I will write the CI code to make sure the document gets compiled.
I will try to leave the mass-message like here just to the major developments as it feels a bit spammy. I will only send out one more notification once the by laws draft is up. Of course if anyone does not want to get notified let me know and ill leave you off from future discussions.

Just FYI, I now set it up so any changed to the document at the link in my last post, once accepted, will automatically compile to a PDF and update teh version hosted here automatically.
So you can follow this link if you want to see the latest version of the document at any time:

I am rather impatiently looking forward to a link to an editable
\(\TeX\)
source (including style file).
In academic context, overleaf works suprisingly well.
@tatzelbrumm no clue what style sheet that is off hand.
@freemo,
In TufteReport.cls,
just add a few %, like,
%\usepackage[sfdefault]{plex-sans} % Use IBM Plex Sans as the sans font and make it the default
%\usepackage{plex-serif} % Use IBM Plex Serif as the serif font
%\usepackage{plex-mono} % Use IBM Plex Mono as the mono font
and things compile well elsewhere
(after sorting out the BibTeX stuff)
Added benefit:
The font conforms to
the Potrzebie system of weights and measures.

@tatzelbrumm oh, all those packages should be installed as part of you tex install.. but you may need to pick a pretty aggressive install package.. most platforms have something like texlive-full that has everything you need.
The server itself will compile the pdf for you when you submit a change by the way.
@tatzelbrumm as we make changes on git it will automatically compile it and publish the new pdf here:
https://ufoi.gitlab.io/constitution/united_federation_of_instances_proposal.pdf
you can also run gitlab-runner locally on the project to compile it locally
@freemo
ok, I cloned the repository,
got rid of the IBM plex font directives, and can edit locally.
What’s the procedure to push contributions?
Clone??
On bitbucket???
github????
gitlab.com?????
@tatzelbrumm create a topic-branch (once just for you), push it there, go to the web-ui create a merge request off of it… select the option to delete topic branch once merged.
@freemo
ok, so far I can’t push from my local repository.
Do I need to create a fork on gitlab to be able to send a merge request?
Should I create one branch per merge request or will one branch for several pull/merge requests suffice?
@freemo
That said, where do I get
plex-sans.sty?
