Dear OEN community,
What
a diverse and interesting group we are! Thank you for sharing part of
your selves in the first community building thread. It is now archived
on the just-created "Community Building" hotpage. We hope the
introductions continue there, not just for another week but for a long
time -- after all, we get new members daily. Of course,
"introductions" implies that there is more to come, and there is.
Quite a bit more. Below we present some short-term goals, with the
understanding that this community building initiative will ultimately
go where OEN members want it to go. We'd have it no other way.
Based on both public comments and private messages, it seemed to us
that there was substantial interest in exploring
ways that the OEN community can collaborate with other
organizations toward furthering a progressive agenda. Let's begin to
do that here, in the second community building thread. Do you have
ties with other progressive organizations? Which ones? Do you have
specific ideas for how OEN can collaborate with them? Also, do you
have specific stories of successful collaborations (or even things that
went wrong) that you think the rest of us might benefit from? We hope
that this thread can not only identify future collaborative partners
for OEN but provide those of us with an interest in collaboration
specific ideas to pursue (e.g., regarding the health care debate that is on many of our minds) and a group of people interested in pursuing
them.
Let's get to it.
