Today, on short notice, several of us held a brief (~1 hour)
meeting
on regional groups. These groups dedicated to promoting OOo without
bounded by language or specific marketing claims. The idea is to do
things that are effective, to collect donations that enable them,
and
to build community where people are.
The attendees included:
Khirano
Louis
André S.
Sophie
Claudio Filho
Olivier Hallot
Raphael Bircher
I think it will be useful to attend to this meeting too.

There was no particularly compelling reason to limit this first
meeting to those above; it just happened that way. I did want to
include Andre, Sophie, Claudio and Olivier and Raphael, as well as
Khirano, b/c of their experiences. My interest was to start things
generally by finding out what works. We can formalize more meetings
later, and invite more. Indeed, I hope that is what happens. It
was my
terrible oversight that I neglected to include Charles in this
meeting--I thought I had--but I hope that subsequent meetings will
more than compensate :-)
They definitely will, although I was anyway not available that day,
being away on the streets of Paris for May Day in a demonstration
against the music piracy law.
Sorry, I should have think to invite you too :(
I also think we should have some kind of a list of geographical and
linguistic areas where we could be present or more present; this
would
lead the way to new Regional Groups as well.
Yes, this is why I have asked the existing RG to list them on the
wiki,
it will help to see where we can try to bring more activity.
On this side also, we could may be think of a kind of LDAP directory
where we can find all members, there location and how to join them.
For
example, if I happen to travel to Spain or Italy and have the
opportunity to meet or get in contact with members of this group, I
would be very happy :)
Also, from the discussion we had yesterday and Louis questions, do you
think that a page about NGO settings could be helpful? For example,
listing ideas of revenues stream or things to do and/or avoid. I do
not
have the log from yesterday, but if you think it's helpful, I'll begin
the page with what was said yesterday when the log will be available.
+1 and thank you,
Charles.
