Participate in collaborative community feedback to help refine in-progress, open projects.
OFPS Is Moving
The Open Feedback Publishing System (OFPS) was a successful O’Reilly experiment that demonstrated the benefits of bridging the gap between private manuscripts and public blogs. Readers gained access to in-progress O’Reilly manuscripts and were able to communicate suggestions with the authors, follow others’ comments, and directly participate in the development of new books. Additionally, authors published their in-progress work whenever they thought it ready for public comment and were able to update the site with new versions as the content was improved.
We’ve taken all of our learning and incorporated into something new and very exciting. We’re currently in the process of migrating active OFPS projects to a new experiment—one that aims to improve on all the benefits of OFPS. If you liked OFPS, you’re going to love what’s next.
