Welcome


Click here for some hints, if you are new to this type of environment

We are using this social network site to gather and share input from the greater SoL community about the organizational evolution that is emerging. The Founding SoL Council requested that nine of us create a transformation process to address social, legal, economic infrastructure needed for the community to achieve its purpose.

You will find both updates of the process and opportunities to participate in and initiate conversations about the process on this site.  Almost every page offers you the chance to comment because we want to know what you think.

You can choose to just to browse and see what is happening in the process

You can contribute in a number of ways by joining the site. From the links to the various pages above, beginning with Home (which is where you are now) there is: Conversations/Forums to share your thoughts and ideas on topics of current importance
Blogs Post to discover what some thought leaders are saying and add to the thinking
Learn more about The Plan (evolution process) & the networks of SoL and add your thinking


Create you own group any member is invited to create a group of your own.

Your continuous participation is vital.

Enhancing Community

I extend a big thank you to all of you who are consistently contributing your thoughts and ideas to our site.

I am noticing more ‘groups’ forming (see right hand column or group tab) and I think it is wonderful. Groups provide space for you to carry out discussions and explorations of specific questions that may interest a subset of members or with whom you are particularly close.

I have added a chat option to the center column for us to try. It will provide more direct conversation and it will be interesting to see how it differs in feel and quality than the on-line written conversations in which we have engaged to this point. This is an experimental website so I am willing to explore any suggestions that you have.
I hope that this will bring us closer together by knowing that others are listening. It is also a quick way for those who choose not to write extensive replies to let their presence be felt.

So my question for the week continues to be what more could we do to make this virtual community feel more real?

An update as of 11 November


At the moment there are 408 members of the group and growing. We hope all of us find ways to contribute to global SoL's evolution. Things on this site have been a little quiet recently for several reasons while the work of SoL and SoL communities continues to thrive.
The work on the organization of global SoL continues with the group of 25 consolidating many ideas and preparing to communicate them to the community. This communication centers on articulating our principles and purpose along with the ongoing conversation about our future together.

Once again, I invite you to help me host the site. I would love for someone (or several someones) to help host and keep the site active. With several of us working either together or in series hopefully we can regenerate our energy.

I’m glad that as a group we continue to grow and conversations continue. I encourage you to start any discussions that will be of interest to you and your work. I see several new conversations appearing. I encourage a variety of people to respond to any and all conversations.

Best Regards,
Alfred
