1/ 20 GM. I am pleased to officially announce the Summer of Protocols (SoP) program, along with a draft of the pilot study that led to it, The Unreasonable Sufficiency of Protocols (TUSoP), which I've been working on with a bunch of collaborators for the last 3 months.

2/ The program will be primarily virtual, and run for 18 weeks from May-August. It will fund a set of full-time Core Researchers and part-time Affiliate Researchers (primarily in the second half) to think broadly and creatively about protocols. https://summerofprotocols.com

Fun! My only foray into protocol space was this piece, which weirdly did get a ton of traction and folks still building and extending it even today https://tomcritchlow.com/2020/04/15/library-json/
