None public work groups.
Silver, 05 Nov 2005 17:56:30
I am just curious how one can join a "none public work group" without having a clue what it is for. What it sets to achieve, and who's in it?
I would like to apply for all "None public workgroup" can the leaders of each send me details.
Silver.

wouldn't it be easier to say on this board what your actually interested in helping with then you will be pointed towards a work group like the rest of us have been?

That would be telling...

But, if they did that and you were not On The Square, they'd have to
kill you, wouldn't they?

You would? You want to help in ALL the aspects of Backlash's work?
Without even knowing what they are? Well, that's a very generous
offer.
For some weeks, the main page contained this paragraph
>After this we laid the groundwork for a number of workgroups for
lobbying, press, education and research. (If you are interested in any
of these workgroups, contact the workgroup organisers here.)
This was part of the report on the first meeting, and was later moved
to its own page on the meetings, linked from the main page. Later
still, because we didn't have the resources to give detailed reports
on each meeting and the original two meetings were old, the link to
the page was removed.
The 'here' in the paragraph quoted was a link to the Contacts page,
which is linked from the top banner of each page, and which has
categories for contacting the moderators of all the workgroups.
The reason that the workgroups were not initially public, that is, not
visible to all who care to browse them, was that they were for those
actively involved in working on those aspects and would contain work
in progress, much that most would consider irrelevant or over-detailed
in the main group, and possibly things that we might not wish our
opponents to make copy out of, or have other valid reasons not to be
visible to all. For instance, should we publish detailed discussion
of which MPs to lobby and how? At least one workgroup (research) has
chosen to be public.
Do not read cliquery into 'those actively involved'. The only
qualification is the active involvement.
I'm still prepared to believe you have Backlash's aims at heart and
trust that you'll find some way to allay any doubts you've raised.
