Not just the reps - the community!
Submitted by Holly on Mon, 02/05/2007 - 10:30am.

I definitely hear your concerns. From where we sit, we feel it's important to first hear it from the horse's mouth. That doesn't mean that we want to be a PR bullhorn - it just means that we want these folks to have a chance to tell their story.

But this IS a moderated call. You will be able to submit YOUR questions during the call, and Katrin, as moderator will make sure that as many questions get answered as possible.

That said, NTEN is all about community voices. That's why, immediately following the call, we're hosting an online chat for the community to dissect what they've just heard and try to make some sense of it.

So we think we've put something together here that will let the entire community get some some questions answered and have their say. I'm always open to suggestions - drop me a line at holly@nten.org.

Why just the company reps?

I'm glad you're doing this, but I think you're title is off. I don't think the company representatives are in a position to offer an unbiased perspective on what this "means for the sector"? It's great to have them involved, but where are the critical observers and advocates for the interests of civil society? You have room for FOUR panelists, couldn't two of those be critics?
