Boundary

Structure without annexation

Projects retain their own names, identities, domains, governance and version choices. Use of the Scaffold does not imply Archivo 21 support, review, approval or affiliation.

What it contains

The alpha contains fully populated project-start templates, source and evidence records, output and release tools, archive and continuity records, trigger-based governance, attribution material and a completed fictional mixed-media pilot.

What it is for

The Scaffold helps a person move from a substantial idea or endangered body of knowledge to a project another person can understand, inspect and continue. It does not require every project to become an institution.

Open use

The documentary materials are released under CC BY 4.0, subject to the exclusions recorded in the package. Commercial use, redistribution and adaptation are permitted. Adaptations may remain private.

Next evidence

The alpha is not presented as a finished universal system. Its next test must come from an independent project using it in real work.
