Yes. Thank you.
In the end, the mechanism is still that we appoint an
individual to carry
somewhat more responsibility for an event, because otherwise things will
inevitably fall through the cracks. You can call them a bottom-liner, a
facilitator, a coordinator, a point person or whatever you want. Does it
suggest an unequal division of labor? Sure it does, but that just reflects
reality. We can strive for a more equal distribution, but in my opinion
just changing the name is not going to change the fact that some people put
in more effort than others, or that in some cases it is actually more
efficient for one person to take charge of certain details.
What's in a name? that which we call a rose by any other name would smell
as sweet...

Hey all,
I want to honor the request from some Omni community members that we
replace the word bottom-liner.
Can we collect a list of alternatives and mutually agree to attempt to
replace this phrase / to lovingly and compassionately correct one another
if and when we slip up?
As little as it may seem, this will require a cultural shift for a lot
of us that I'm sure we're all willing to make, but it'll likely take a bit
of time before it collectively takes root.
It would be great if those who take particular issue with this phrase
could put forth their suggestions.
I will collect suggestions and make a poll both online and in the real
world.
Here are some suggestions of mine:
* steward
* curator
* representative
Love,
N
