avtal med företaget ArkivIT om drift och support av ett e-arkivsystem baserat på programvarorna Archivematica och AtoM (Access to Memory)

Hösten 2021 gick det Enskilda e-arkivet med Arkiv Sörmland i spetsen in i slutfasen för E-arkivportalen. Tanken är att portalen ska nyttjas av föreningar som vill arkivera digitalt material som i första hand tillkommit digitalt. Det kan röra sig om hemsidor, sociala medier, mailkorrespondens, avtal, räkenskaper, fotografier, videofiler, och mycket mer.

Doodle alternatives, self-hostable or otherwise

I keep getting annoyed by Doodle. In this latest example, it proved impossible to change the shown "name" as guest user once my answer was submitted, despite it being possible to change everything else, or even decline. (I wanted to make use of the "name" field to include a single-word message to the organizer.) And when logged in the name field never even showed up during the answer flow.

Self-hostable alternatives

The uneven global distribution of fertilizer production capacity

African farmers on average use the least fertilizer per acre in the world and have some of the lowest yields, particularly for corn and other grains that provide the bulk of the continent’s calories. As a result, despite having 60 percent of the world’s arable land, almost half the countries in Africa depends on imported wheat from Russia and Ukraine, with 14 African countries getting more than half their wheat from the two warring nations.
