<!-- <h6>Hacking maintenance with care. Reflections on the self - administered survival of digital solidarity networks</h6> -->
< div class = "intro" >
< h1 > Introduction< / h1 >
< h3 > CONTEXT< / h3 >
< p > Within a context of generalized precarity and massive rise of the costs of life, maintenance has become an extremely delicate and contradicting practice for self-organized cultural initiatives which run and maintain independent digital infrastructures. < br > The present form is a tool to inspect the current status of infrastructural well-being within such initiatives. It is an attempt to zoom-in into the everydays struggles and contradictions emerging from the self-administered survival of digital solidarity networks. The hope is that of triggering discussion and elaborate on questions like WHAT NEEDS TO BE MAINTAINED AND HOW? WHAT IS DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN? WHAT NEEDS TO NOT BE MAINTAINED? WHICH COLLECTIVITY IS ACTUALLY INVOLVED IN THE MAINTENANCE?< / p >
< p > Any form of collectivity is hereby simply addressed as "the organization". < / p >
< h3 > WARNING!< / h3 >
< p > The boiler inspection will take around < span class = "highlight" > 60min< / span > , but obstacles and difficult conversation might stretch the < span class = "highlight" > inspection time up to 3 hours.< / span >
The questions present in the inspection might not encompass all the issues and might generate even more questions; yet they might be used to address internal and/or external unspoken conflicts in a formalized way. Answers to the questions do not pretend to be exhaustive, and solutions < span class = "highlight" > MIGHT NOT BE GRANTED.< / span > < / p >
< p > The following questions have been formulated and calibrated on the basis of past boiler inspections. Feel free to correct or modify both questions and answers according the specificities of your organizational urgencies.< / p >
< p > Please, be wary that some of the questions might trigger anxiety, dizziness, headache, tension and/or confusion. If you experience any of these symptoms feel free to verbalize and discuss them, or to take a break, or to have a walk, or to leave blank spaces, or to leave thick black marks, or to fold the corners of the form, ot to rip them off, or to crumple up the whole form.< / p >
< p > PLEASE MARK WITH THE SYMBOLS ⚠️ or 🔥 or 😡 ANY SENSITIVE INFORMATION YOU WISH NOT TO BE PUBLIC. Such information will be held as professional secret.< / p >
< h3 > GETTING READY< / h3 >
< p > Find the appropriate time and space for the boiler inspection. Ideally, the inspection may be conducted togheter with everyone involved in your organization, but if this is not possible it's ok to do it with fewer people. < br >
Ask not to be disturbed. Find a comfortable position, and take a deep breath.
< / p >
< p > Now you can turn the page and start the boiler inspection.< / p >
