Fragmented and Invisible.

The present community loses a lot because the modes of communication it uses are fragmented and invisible. There is minimal crossover and no central reference point.

There is nothing at the technical level to prevent podcasting, nor use of more advanced and accessible forum software.

Our numbers and personal situations take the "figurehead" option off the table until the right person makes that decision themselves. I've concluded that any such individuals trying to present themselves as figureheads in our community are, or were doing so for reasons that make them unsuitable for that role. Most of them lack mental stability.

I am trying to tackle some of these issues by working with a group of MAPs to open an online hub that will include a news aggregation service (with comments), a blog with an editorial arm, and information resources. Importantly, it will then expand to include a forum that is free for members of the public to view.
