[Campaigns-l] We need a short, sweet summary of what we're doing.

[Becky Blackham]

Hello List Members,

I found this CampaignWikia project from reading "An open letter to the 
political blogosphere" by *Jimmy (Jimbo) Wales, July 4, 2006 * at 
http://www.teambio.org/2006/07/lets-ramp-up-the-intelligence-of-politics/#more-5076

I emphatically agree with the list member who referred to using 
CampaignWikia's _Mission Statement_ as guidance. However, the _Mission 
Statement_ on CampaignWikia is so broad it does not provide structure, 
intentionally so. We are free to develop it, so...

Jim Wale's open letter has so much content usable as potential structure 
either for the CampaignWikia website, or simply to mull over in our 
discussion here.  I will do a  brief outline of his ideas and post it 
here.  Perhaps this will be a good take off point for more ideas, or 
even suffice as an initial structure for the site, to be overhauled, 
evolving as it should be, on an on-going basis.

Becky
