2010/9/16 Jared Camins-Esakov <jcamins@cpbibliography.com> I think it would be great if PTFS/LL put together a memo suggesting ways to move forward either with the 501(c)3(?) Koha foundation that already exists or with a new one if necessary. That said, I hope that should PTFS/LL agree to put together a memo, the community accepts their proposal in good faith. Since the reaction to most of their attempts to contribute have often been met with suspicion and anger, I can imagine they are reluctant to put themselves out there again. No one has to go along with the proposal if they think it is self-serving, but it would be good if we all agreed to consider the PTFS/LL proposal/memo along with any other good/bad/hare-brained/brilliant ideas that people are willing to write up. Lori Ayre Since LibLime seems to have a clear idea of what they would like to see for
the Koha community (wrt a foundation), could I request that you (Amy DeGroff, Patrick Jones, John Yokley, or another, on behalf of LibLime) summarize your suggestions on the wiki so that people like me can understand the issues that you see? Anywhere on the wiki would be helpful, but I suggest adding it to the wiki under http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Category:Koha_Foundation since that seems to me a logical place to put this discussion.
I look forward to a fruitful discussion on the future of Koha- the sooner we can put conflict behind us, the sooner we can go back to what we do best (in my case, bibliography).
