[ogb-discuss] [osol-discuss] A proposal for ensuring sustained Community Growth and Success

[ken mays]

I'd like to separate some things here: The OGB is an
elected body by
 the 
Members and it runs nothing. It sets policy and
enforces policy. The 
Facilitators run the community from a management
perspective 
(potentially, anyway). There are, what, 150 or so
Members and 40 or so 
Facilitators. The Members already have leadership --
its the OGB. Now, 
why can't the Facilitators organize into some
structure for their own 
management? When you look at the Constitution, I think
it already 
articulates a political and management structure for
us. I think we
 just 
need to work it and take ownership of it.

I'd be really happy to participate in an effort like
that.

Jim,

+1 on your comments.

Most of us signed up back in Y2004 and now we are
close to four years with the proposed 150 members and
40 facilitators. Yet, the communication between the
community, facilitators, and OGB seems lost in a
'battlefield' of threads...

We need people that will take a bit of ownership and
innovate ways to grow the community and ensure not
only success - but improved community involvement and
support as well.
