 ===== About me =====
 I'm an transdisciplinary commoner working in the few fields where my sense is that I have most to uniquely contribute.
-Having lived in a shared student house, a co-housing community for 7 years, and now over 6 years in a micro-community of four older adults, I have something to say about [[intc:intentional communities]] and [[coho:cohousing]]. I've also been a keen user of and advocate for [[foss:Open Source]] software.

-For many years I've been a contributor to [[wiks:wikis]]; and I have [[https://wiki.simongrant.org/|my own (DokuWiki) wiki]]. Whether or not they can be properly counted as such, I've written [[https://wiki.simongrant.org/doku.php/t:knowledge_commons|a lot about knowledge commons]]. This here wiki is a great example and I'm proud to be a core designer of and contributor to it.

+===== Involvement with Growing the Commons =====
+I'm one of the pioneering commoners setting up this wiki. [[user:Katja]] and I have used our experience with wikis and particularly DokuWiki to lead the design and structure of this wiki.
+I have a degree in Physics and Philosophy, so I've signed up as one of the curators for the [[phil:Philosophy]] page.
+Recently, I've been working on the [[doc:start|documentation]],
+and I'm helping to look for commoner curators for various topics, particularly for topics in the groups:
+  * [[gt:Digital]] & media
+  * [[gt:Learning]] & personal development
 ===== My organisations =====
