“please dont plug accessgrid any more, you have suggested this on many emails and i know it may be in good faith but we have spent lots of time on various different lists discussing this. the meeting will take place on irc, most probably #wikimania2008 or #wikimania2009 (not yet decided). for people not used to irc this can be accessed by going to HYPERLINK "http://wikimania2008.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC%22http://wikimania2008.wikimedia. org/wiki/IRC and choosing wikimania planning channel”.
Thanks Mark (and Majorly),
Sorry, I didn’t mean to suggest that WMF’s communities’ world would change tomorrow.
I’m just looking at ‘Sandbdox’ initiatives like this HYPERLINK "http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity:Sandbox_Server%22http://en.wikive... sity.org/wiki/Wikiversity:Sandbox_Server
And what Steve has introduced with the Wikback forum,
And then wondered about how long it might take Head Office to use tools which might be more inclusive.
I only use the accessgrid as it’s the unis top end of this kind of research, which starts with IRC (or Jabber). If the Foundation’s mission is to help its communities to share global knowledge, then sooner or later AG’s communities will need to be involved, or more reasonably, vice versa. They’ve got the global comms infrastructure but are country centric. WMF’s communities have proved they have riveting global content but embryonic comms. A marriage made in heaven from my perspective.
Just reading through this reflector and noting the number of views we get for posts on this elist.
It ain’t many. HYPERLINK "http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/wiki/foundation/%22http://www.gossamer... threads.com/lists/wiki/foundation/
Missed the meetings. Could you point me at their archive? Thanks so much, simon

I would like you to know a past discussion of Communications Committee, while it was on a private list so you cannot get the log, sorry.
We are likely - to prefer to use only Open source / Free licensed software and environment. That is partly why we (in this context comcom) would not go to skype meetings instead of irc ones. - to prefer text base interaction for organizing things and exchanging opinions, as more than half of members are no native English speakers nevermore. Audio base interaction may increase barriers and made us those non-native more handicapped in the communications and accelarate ineffectivity and Anglo-centricism which we would like rather avoid.
And I believe others committee or organization teams are sharing these concerns. And more over we currently are satisfied with IRC environment.
Thanks.
