I’m organizing the Federated Video Co-op (working name), a Canadian-hosted, member-owned co-operative focused on federated video services. By request, I’m publishing two documents that outline where the project is headed and what needs to be done next.

Roadmap:

This document lays out the full sequence of steps needed to move from foundational principles to incorporation, democratic governance, and eventually a public launch.

Bylaw Drafting: Task Plan:

This is a comprehensive task list detailing everything required to produce a legally review-ready set of bylaws, including decisions about the name, domains, and communications channels.

Both documents are being shared publicly so anyone following the project can see the structure, expectations, and decision points involved. Transparency is essential to how this co-op is being built, and having a shared reference helps ensure that contributors, supporters, and future members all understand how the process unfolds.

If you’re interested in federated video infrastructure, co-operative digital governance, or community-owned alternatives to corporate platforms, you’re welcome to read along and ask questions as the work continues.
