redescribing/redesigning the new-imc process

• the new-imc process
  • NewImcHowHelpUs - more or less the process as it is now
  • Probable or possible major shifts in the new-imc process, beyond what the new-imc working group is mandated to decide on:
    • FaceToFaceInDangerousPlaces - trying to track the problems of forming IMCs in places where f2f meetings are dangerous
    • GlobalThemes - trying to track the discussion about topic IMC's
      • see NewProject for issue/topic/theme IMCs
  • ImcRegionalisation - also relevant for other global lists
    • NewImcUK - United Kollektives decentralisation and new imc process
    • Oceania syndication site - Oceania sees itself as not an IMC, only as a syndication site - e.g. NewImc030826a
    • NewImcUSProcess - IMC US asked to be treated as "an IMC", not just a syndication site
    • NewProject

• -- PseudoPunk - 12 Jun 2002
• How come there's that list if there aren't actually pages? It's a dandy list, but since the titles look like links (but aren't) shouldn't it be re-jigged, maybe as a list of suggestions? -- BenTrem - 07 Nov 2002
• Dear BenTrem, the whole idea of TWikiFAQ is that people can put titles before they are actually filled out. WelcomeGuest to TWiki. -- BouD - 26 Dec 2002
• added imc germany major reporting document -- IonNec - 23 Jun 2003
• added a link to the Womyns Propsal -- DricaVeloso - 06 March 2004
• updating contact database links -- BouD - 25 Dec 2005
