Re: [atlarge-discuss] Constituency



Re:  << I do not understand why Danny does not want to join us because it 
seems quite odd to ask the support of the @large members of the governance to 
create a new governance body while refusing to be an @large member of that 
very same governance. >>

Dear Jefsey,

If you said to the average rational person,  "Please join my group.  It has 
no mission, no charter, no bylaws, no incorporation, no dues, no ability to 
raise funds, no outreach program, no policy statements, a leadership panel 
that is resigning in droves, and after ten months it has basically 
accomplished nothing", I am sure that the average person would politely say 
to you, "well, it's sure cheap to join...but..."

This particular organizational model has failed.  Perhaps a formal 
constituency structure will succeed.  It's time to start over with a narrow 
mission and a concrete organizational structure defined by a Charter.  The 
IDNO failed, now too has icannatlarge... but there is no shame in a failed 
endeavor... one learns from one's mistakes.  I would rather pursue a new 
venture than to tie myself to an effort that is going nowhere.

I call it as I see it.

Best regards,
Danny
