 please check them out when you have a mo Let us know if everyone can read
and write  (or suggest/ make changes)

We now have 17 great  members on board to start with: Please share a few
words about yourself (if you like)
About me (PDM):  Former  journalist and digital publisher covering current
affair topics, then London based science and technology correspondent,
early nineties I had to learn about the web and new technologies to
continue to do my job. I then became fascinated by the web, mostly with its
beauty as a universal server of all world (and other world) knowledge and
became somewhat inextricably entangled with it an now I  have started to
rapidly co evolve with the web and its knowlege it brings me.  I undertook
various pursuits in digital publishing, including launghing an online
magazine
(content-wire.com)  In the last few years I have worked on Technology
Ethics, as a EuroSPES fellow. I have experience working in global community
management, organised high profile workshops and seminars worldwide (in
different languages),and served as an academic editor and publisher. I've
done some many things I can't remember.
I met in person only Irene Celine (Hi Irene will you serve a cochair) and
virtually several of you, including old timers like Chris Harding of the
OPen Group (feels one hundred years ago), hope to meet people in person.
Especially glad to see an IIT Bombay guy (welcome) as I worked as visiting
professor for IIT Mandi some years ago. Welcome Mari from UPM, are you in
Asun's group?

I take the opportunity to remember Bobrow
<https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Daniel_Bobrow2> who
sadly passed last year, by sharing this seminal article
<https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1207/s15516709cog0101_2> which
I think we should all read, if we haven't already

Thanks again for joining, and look forward to great times ahead

We'll dive into work organisation in the next week or so.
