> post on
> nodel list they went "anxious elite" and despite defining itself as
> "an organisation striving for openness and transparency" developed
> "sense of hidden hierarchy" inside the group.

> now, NL's project coordinator tim jones proposes few things that could
> save the org or if not accepted, it will be left for others to take up.
> proposals include creating new list only for "active" organisers
> (now 90 subscribers); refreshing the org's signatories persons; and
> delivering smaller, more modular funding application. in this 
> application
> he names several areas: subscriber meetings, "focus events" (two 
> thematic
> bigger events preceding the season), website/tools development, 
> national/
> international links (node.stockholm is being formed, possible 
> cooperation
> with multiplace is mentioned), managerial support/coordination 
> (actually
> he is founding a company that is proposed to maintain web and lists,
> facilitate specific events, sell publications, and do financial 
> management
> for node.london).
