Inclusive Initiatives

We are thinking about having a conference call.

Perhaps a next step after a call is a face to face day to brainstorm...but maybe out of the call will come other next steps. Perhaps it is some kind of brainstorming about groups/issues that need attention. We have some collective researching/exploration focus for a month....

It would be great to see if if we can find a way to identify groups and people who can show up at IIW in May and make a step towards more inclusiveness. It likely means finding people who have some technical background who will be able to climb the relatively steep ramp of learning.. (hey this is where newbies 4 newbies can help).

I think it would be great to see if we can also have some kind of seminar/symposium (some time between now and the next next IIW - 2008b) maybe even co-sponsored by a university program about cyberspace stuff. To cover some of the issues/groups etc. that we bring up. We also need to as a group track events that are/have happened in this space already - this is a pool of potential IIW participants.
