Progress on Forming the Small Is Good World Working Group

March 8th, 2005

Lars, thank you so much for the congratulations and words of encouragement.

For those who might not know her Social Edge ‘handle’ (nickname), C Kirabo is none other than Ashoka Fellow Christina ‘Kirabo’ Jordan who folks know around O.net for her work developing the Life in Africa Network. Kirabo, meaning ‘gift’, is a name given to her by her friends in Uganda.

We are especially thrilled with the election result as we and Christina are kindred spirits, along with the father and son team of Toby and Richard Beresford of MicroAid.Net, and Pamela McLean of CawdNet and others who intend to get together at the Forum to launch the Small Is Good World Working Group.

We’ll have more to say about our trip to the Forum and the formation of the working group in the days ahead. For the moment, we’re going to relax a bit and savor the idea of heading to the Forum in three weeks! :-)
Thanks again Lars. And thanks especially to anyone who took an interest in the delegate election at Social Edge, and who voted to send us and Christina as delegates.
