Dear Jamie,
I can understand that this discussion is filling up
your email !
But I'm esthonished about your
reaction.
As Steven S. mentioned, beyond the spontaneous
rennaissance of the organisation
of the conference lures the question about the status of the Aacorn Network. Will
it
remain an email-list, or will it become an "institution" able to act as an offficial,
recognized
and accredited actor
able to receive funding, (rights to do commerce?), etc. for what ever
will be it's precisely mission.
Every member of the network should be deeply
concerned by this question, istn't it?
Jürgen

Dear Steve, Dear Paul,
This is an interesting dialogue,
but you are filling up our email
boxes and not sure this discussion is
relevant to all. You might like
to create an email
sub-group?
