While [Open Online Platforms] welcome and encourage a wide range of participation, they have distinct terms of participation that constrain what we can and cannot do.

My take-away from this is that the "margins" are a source for innovation. The conflict between order and wide participation is negotiated and adapted in the margins. In ORES case, the intervention originated from the observation that Wikipedia was failing to adapt to a problem. The goal is to expand the margins around IUI tool developers in order to jump-start innovation/adaptation there.

Jmorgan what would the lit on genre ecologies have to say about this?

I want to mash together the ideas around Genre Ecologies, Successors, Hearing to speech/Boundary preservation and ask what we'd expect to see. I think the answer is that we'd expect to see stuff like what Sage et al. are developing.

By hearing to speech, we're opening the door for re-mediation artifacts that can gain ground/support/anchor.

"By virtue of the way that ORES is designed, it creates more opportunity for different interpretations for what quality control means or how quality control is enacted." --J-Mo

"Can you say that a tool built on ORES fundamentally changes the way that people view quality control process?" --J-Mo

"The system for quality control has taken on a kind of funnel model where ... [lines of defense] ... and that has stabilized."

"JADE is part of the ORES system. It is a hearing-to-speech."

"JADE/ORES-transparency encourages people to articulate what they think quality means."
