This is an interesting concept. But after thinking
about it for a few
days I wonder how easy it would be to get the numerous organisations
that represent open multimedia to get on board? It seems that it is a
ver difficult task to get them all motivated. I would guess there would
be more liklihood of getting one of the larger organisations to take on
the role and use their leverage to get others involved.
In other words I think there may more more chance to get it done from
the inside than starting YAOMF (Yet another open music foundation).
What are your ideas on this?
well,
a) the idea is for an umbrella organisation, to embrace *all* the Free
and Open multimedia movements...
b) im working with GNU at the moment... my book is published by them....
Jack, who originally proposed the idea, was given my address by RMS..
