That isn't
central. What what is central is how to go forward and
doing so. While learning lessons from WMUK 1.0 is important focusing
on individuals is unlikely to help us learn those lessons.
If you have a better idea, speak up.
Best we can tell it is not a good idea to leave a group of fairly
isolated people to do the startup without much in the way of ways to
effectively monitor progress and some idea over when the situation is
throwing up red flags. I think these are both things we are
endeavoring to fix in WMUK 2.0 Both by trying to arrange things so
there is a significant wider community interest in progress and some
form of timetable by which we can judge progress. Ideally we can tell
there are issues within 3 months and that it is time to drop and start
again in 6.
At the moment we are trying to keep people interested through the
board elections. Once those are complete we can hope to keep interest
by monitoring progres. Discussion of possible future projects and
collecting a list of groups and people that might be useful to contact
once WMUK 2.0 is up and running.
