thx, laura. i was concerned that participants might have the impression
that "The Omni" had initiated the becoming omni process. i described the
role of the collectives in the process to one of my working group members
and it felt uncomfortable.

We explicitly told the participants in the design team
meeting that we
needed to get buy-in from all the collectives and get the delegates
approval that Becoming Omni will make decisions for the Omni as a whole. In
response the group created an "inreach" working group called "Working
Within the System", which at the moment is Yar and Joel, to take
responsibility for this. You may have missed these parts of the meeting,
Robb. They have begun going to the collectives' meetings.
Also, Tomorrow an email is going out on the discuss listserv with
information about the working groups that have formed and inviting anyone
to join them.

I changed the thread name.

should prolly have started a new thread for this
do the becoming omni facilitators plan to make it clear to the
participants that the collectives' delegates will have to get approval from
their collectives in order for any substantial change to take place on the
ground at the omni? how do they plan on informing the collectives' members
who do not attend as to the progress of the process?
thx

It's my understanding that this process could
potentially result in a
more
top-down restructuring of the management of the
Omni with little to no
required buy-in from the individual collectives.
Just to be very clear, this is an open-ended process where nothing is
pre-ordained, which will depend entirely on who shows up and what they
want. If people show up wanting to turn Omni into a Kafkaesque
dystopia, then yes, that could "potentially" be the result. But I
doubt it.
