teresadeca (Portugal): that's what i onsider one of the enrichments of these media. we can comment as we go along without being rude

Mbarek: contnet publishing is related to blogs , wikis and websites

Moderator (vance stevens 1): We're oriented way out most of these spokes I think

teresadeca (Portugal): it was back in 2002, nina

Moderator (Nancy): The larger, more diverse the community the more spread out they are on orientation as a generality

teresadeca (Portugal): right. the f2f meetings are very relevant and soooo important
