I've been compiling patterns... would you like to use any of them?

Hi.

I became interested in green web development a few years ago and last year tried to compile them into an e-book, which is here.

https://github.com/mikeyhogarth/the-green-web-dev-book/blob/main/src/SUMMARY.md

Lots of the patterns in there are very similar to patterns you have in your collection (these are all mainly "web" patterns). The whole idea of creating an e-book of these hasn't really had the impact I was hoping for but I put quite a lot of work into them so I'm looking for a home to pass them on to - I came across this patterns project and it looks like they might be a good fit for what you're doing here.

Some of the patterns from the e-book are patterns you already have in your collection (e.g. the gifs one). I was wondering how I'd get the ball rolling on maybe getting the rest merged into your repository here if you want them - is there someone I can talk to about which ones you might want / which ones you don't want etc.?

I'm happy to do the work of re-formatting them into your style if you see any in the list that you think might be a good fit but I don't really want to create any work for you or myself if there's nothing here that's relevant.

Thanks,

Mikey

@dubrie @jawache @holanita @greenhsu123 apologies for reaching out directly but could you advise if this project is still active? I'm keen to start transferring some of the content I've created into this repo if it is + if you think it's relevant.

@russelltrow - Can you follow up on this?

Hi Mikey, thank you for the above! Currently, the project is undergoing restructuring, so we are not accepting any new patterns. Once we have finished, we will reach back out again!

Thank you for getting back to me - hopefully speak in the future!

Hi Mikey,

Thank you so much for following up on this.

I've very recently joined the GSF to drive our Principles & Patterns projects forward and as Sarah said one of the current tasks is some reassessment and restructuring. Once the time is right I would love to have a conversion about your ebook and the patterns to determine how we might best collaborate.

I will leave this thread open and come back to you in due course.
