I’m extremely happy to announce that Neighborgoods 0.1 has been released!
Neighborgoods is a platform which allows people and organizations to setup a #library of many different kinds, and federate them together to provide a large resource for borrowing, sharing, and giving.
This is our first release, which has basic setup of distributed libraries , which are groups in an area where people share goods.



Sorry, which part is unclear? I’m the main developer on the project, and there’s also a few others that are adding in. The tone problems are probably mine.
There’s also a more concise website - currently moving it to the .org, but you can see it now at https://neighborsgoods.com/
The project has to balance between the very theoretical parts of library socialism as a whole, the ideas of the platform as a whole, and needs of a small library now, so it’s obviously not going to hit any part 100%. But I’m happy to clarify anything - and make sure the text gets updated to be clearer!
