Hi PVR
1. Let us not be academic
2. Put up the various definitions and vote on it
3. We have a workable, proven product in Switzerland. Not perfect
but it works.
4. Each area or country will decide the details of the DD
5. The basic rule is that the Politicians are the employees of the
voters. The voters decide which politicians are employed and pays them.
6. Get this message out there and get the community believing that
they can control the politicians
7. Directly challenge the politicians to explain why the voters are
not in charge of them
While we concentrate on the details the ultimate goal moves
further away.

Dear Jim,
The primary purpose of WDDM is, I believe, to evolve methods to usher in
DD in most democracies of the world. The product is not yet ready;
even the preliminary like agreeing on a meaningful definition and a workable
action plan. Would talk about marketing it be meaningful at this stage?
We need to be focused on the ultimate goal.

PVR

Hi pvr,
The idea behind the Face book is to broaden the marketing of DD
Within WDDM we are preaching to the converted
Applications can be written for members of Facebook to join the
DD group. It is another outlet for DD
Coca Cola is extremely successful partly because it is in your
face wherever you go

Subject: [WDDM] Regarding the social network site
Dear Mirek,
I am puzzled about the new social network site. There is a call for new members
to join the site. Aren't all the existing members of WDDM already members of
WDDM? Perhaps the site should be titled as Social Network Site of WDDM.
The option of giving the photographs of members could be incorporated in the
existing wiki itself. The exact purpose of the new site is not clear. If it is
blogging then it can be added as one more provision on the home page.
Regards,
PVR
