Here are some examples NOT specific suggestions, simply to illustrate the point. 1. TDF governance is adopted by all - in that case OOo community Council etc is absorbed into TDF 2. OOo CC is adopted by all - in that case TDF is absorbed into OOo CC 3. A new organisation is created with a new constitution and governance for both communities 4. Either governance is modified in some way to take account of the other 5. Each remains separate but agrees to cooperate in a sort of coalition. Once community and project governance is resolved the duly elected officers in consultation with the community can make decisions about eg development priorities use of names etc. I think until there is agreement on governance with delegated power to the governing body, there will always be the potential for acrimonious disagreement about every individual issue. -- > Charles-H.
