July-August 2020 CFP: Yak Collective Collaborations
Use this form to propose collaborative projects to start in July 2020 that you are willing to take the lead on. Projects will be published/promoted under our shared Yak Collective brand. Projects should ideally be structured to allow for small contributions from many people. Submissions will be visible to all to review.

Deadline Friday, June 26, at which point the proposals will be evaluated and greenlit/prioritized via some community process, based on how many people are interested in contributing to each.
