> Echoing something that Dave has said, whatever happens with the bid, the
> community is a reality and there is a certain level of ownership around the
> world. Even if we all end up deciding it's an annoying bit of jargon with no
> relevance to our real social missions, it is turning into a very valuable
> collaborative space.
>
> I just wondered if it was a good idea to have a fresh description for the
> websites. Something like
>
> An independent and open community of people and organisations interested in
> using digital technology to support connectivity in communities.
>
> Currently collaborating on a bid for... etc
> Or something similar.

> Despite the fact that the community has been forming for all of six weeks
> (if that), for newcomers it looks like a very developed thing with some
> formed ideas. The words 'clique' and 'exclusive' have been used on my blog
> post and it wouldn't do any harm to try and make sure that this is
> perception can be easily overcome by those who are interested.
>
> It also helps open up the space for people who might have linked up on the
> site and who want to collaborate on projects other than the DCLG bid.
