Survey

akme.baum...@gmail.com (Alex Baumann) — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 00:37:51 UT

Hi Chris,
You can probably tell I didn't sleep very well last night....one more
thought. What about adding an online survey to draw people into the
space and help to find common topics of interest. We could use the 3
question structure of that video you found with a survey monkey linked
from Talking Point. What were those questions again?

Get organised

akme.baum...@gmail.com (Alex Baumann) — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 00:33:16 UT

Hi Chris,
This part of the project seems to be a project in itself. While the
way we have it set up will allow people to begin a topic and for those
topics to be listed well and for then to develop the description and
the basic jobs with others and then to develop them by using the
suggestions in the priority post, the space of course does not do

Poster

Hi Chris,
I was thinking that we need to develop a generic black and white A6
(1/4 of A4) Flyer that provides a pitch for the space and some of the
things that can be organised in it with a blank for a few local
topical events that can be filled in by any street. Peopl could use
this flyer to letter box drop or as a poster or as just a face to face

Name for online space

akme.baum...@gmail.com (Alex Baumann) — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 00:16:47 UT

Hi Chris,
We don't have something to call this online space. I was thinking last
night about this and I thought of calling the whole thing the
Co-operator but then another thought came to me. It might seem a
little stange at first but what about calling the whole thing simply
'VILLAGE'. It is a nicer word than the Co-operator and has the right

Resources List

akme.baum...@gmail.com (Alex Baumann) — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 00:05:07 UT

Hi Chris,
We also need a place for a resource list. So that resources like
Freecycle and the hall at the Neighbourhood centre and the computers
at the library and the toy library can be advertised. This could be a
priority post in the events page because they would largely be
stagnant services that could just remain there.

FW: WHY HOUSING IS UNAFFORDABLE - [NATIONAL NEWS 9589 - 2009, 17 NOVEMBER]

chrisbaul...@hotmail.com (Chris Baulman) — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 00:24:06 UT

In order to address the ownership model we might need to spend more time debating this view. Over a decade ago when I looked into the land tax idea I realised that Henry George did NOT rest on land tax, but saw it as a partial response to a problem that was rooted in a deep injustice. This summary below is timely.

Setup Instructions

akme.baum...@gmail.com (Alex Baumann) — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 02:58:02 UT

I haven't yet re-written the set up instructions for a new street/area
who may want to set up a forum like Hope St. I guess I'm just waiting
for the dust to settle so I don't have to do it over again.

IMPROVING THE ORGANISATON PROCESS

akme.baum...@gmail.com (Alex Baumann) — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 02:25:04 UT

Hi Chris,
I Have made all the changes you suggested to the welcome and the
priority post in the gg getting organised forum page. I have brought
the discussion back to NTW's gg because I think it is better to do it
here as the record is kept on NTW's TP and doesn't interfer with the
Hope St forum where it will need to be deleted..
