Any preliminary questions about FIRES prior to the paper being finalized? Ask them here! 
We will make a new post when the proposal is finalized for next steps 
Hi, I’m Emelia, the author of FIRES, I’m watching this thread, so my replies should be fairly timely.
The key goal is to provide moderation recommendations and advisories, I do have a plan for how FIRES fits into the rest of the moderation ecosystem, including an idea that’s essentially signals intelligence but for Fediverse moderation groups/networks.
FIRES is not centrally hosted, and is pretty much API-only, designed to be integrated with other tools.
Whilst work has currently been slow on the proposal, I am slowly getting it ready for publication — I have been having to focus on additional paid work alongside responsibilities I have with my contributions to Mastodon and the components that I’m most involved in, such as the Streaming server, moderator tools, and OAuth 2.0)
