> 
> 
> Effective the afternoon of Day 3 of common a list server was created for
> discussion between user group board members and liasons.  This server is
> intended as a mechanism for ANY AND ALL board members and liasonal persons
> to have a communications mechanism between ourselves.
> 
> I expect it to be populated with emails by middle of the week and
> functional...depending on how much catchup I have to do after getting
> back.
> 
> It is a closed list to public posting out side of the list membership.
> 
> Those who are board members or liasons are urged to send me your email and
> which users group and position you hold, along with voice, fax and postal
> address.
> 
> Folks serving on boards regularly have needs for items and problem
> solving.  This varies from everything to program speakers, venues,
> formats, marketing, education, technical conferences,  etc...  It is the
> desire of this list server to help board members to help each other
> address these needs, problems and concerns.
> 
> The official language will be English, but the list is open to all boards
> world wide in any language that their concerns and needs can be best
> expressed.   I know that there will be people on the list which know
> English, Spanish and French.  My hope is that the other languages will
> shortly have representation for translation or direct addressing. 
> 
> In recent history one of the biggest problems facing boards is COMMON
> itself.   Common at the LUG lunch in San Antonio had promised to address
> a concerns list, but regretibly, and as expected, by the N/O meeting had
> made no progress.  Actually, both staff and board had done pitifully
> little since the last meeting, were TOTALLY unprepared for this meeting -
> to the point of not even having their notes and action items lists from
> LAST meeting. It really gave one serious concern as to the calibre of
> Common staff and board.  But they now have hired more staff and going
> through their internal rebuild, so perhaps there's hope for the future.
