did you talk with the other members? Aniruhd and Theo for example aren't in your list. Can you tell me why? _____ * *

Hi Theo,
In reply to your previous e-mail, I have no info about an in-person meeting or the possibility that this chosen group would be funded to travel to Berlin – that seems very unlikely given that the work is scheduled to finish before the Berlin conference and is to happen online.
You are right that the grouping includes people who have previously contributed to the wider topic in one way or another (e.g. I could cite Achal's pilot to bootstrap the South African chapter) even if not necessarily the movement roles discussion; and might not include some very active participants of the MR group.
The grouping is a bit random but it does not necessarily exclude some prominent people because of spite, but simply because they were busy (e.g. Alice or Lodewijk have been approached to my knowledge) or noone thought of them. What Goma refers to is, there is no benefit in either being in the group or not being in the group as the work is happening on Meta, there is no new mailing list (Bishakha might send some reminders on the MR list), nothing at all (and with your questioning, I would say that there are negative benefits). There is nothing to stop Bishakha from creating ten different, competing groups, some of them even overlapping and having them work on Meta; similarly it doesn't matter if I create an anti-group, the end goal is that work is done on the one Meta on time.
This is a very accurate characterization. I did speak to Lodewijk and Alice, who could not commit.
As Bence puts it, the only extra 'benefit' that the 7 people who have agreed apart from me seem to get is that I will hound them by email and push them to contribute within the timeline etc.
There is no new mailing list, nothing at all - so can you please bring your thoughts on to meta as you have done in the past and follow the timeline? That will really help.
Best Bishakha
