cris if you mean your proposal:
> for writer / peer technician / programmer pilots
to be set up. ...  That is for writers working with new media ...to be
able to develop a project with
peer technical / programming collaborators. I'm aware that TrAce
explore some of this. but I'd like to see a more residential and
creatively based collaborations encouraged, facillitated, supported<

this sounds good to me. My period of virtual 'attachment' to trAce
included access to a technical 'mentor' but very little came of this
(which I'm not knocking trAce, the thing was really good in different
ways) one way and another because (I think) it wasn't set up with
perhaps the depth of thinking and framework you're suggesting; and he &
I hadn't much idea what to do with each other.

Btw people might be interested to know that Helen Whitehead of trAce is
running the first Arvon course on Writing on the Internet this summer,
can't remember which centre.
