  * Develop a new and more "democratic" approach to technology development.
 
-Proposal: Dividing our membership into "constituencies" (labor, community-based, arts, etc.), we would bring together these members into workshops during which we would discuss how the current capabilities we have can be better used by them in their "area-specific" work and what other capabilities they feel they need from MF/PL. Flowing from this discussion, we would then work to develop these capabilities.

+ * strongly encourage members to place logos/notifications of their MFPL membership on their web sites and email signatures (but not force them to do so).
+ * poll our members to find out the issues they are most interested and concerned about and what their needs are.
