Communication infrastructure

Agreed! I think a good first step is cleaning up our categories — I don’t feel the current set is cutting it:

  • General and uncategorized are grab bags for everything-goes
  • Learning Essentials is a mix of internal material and external resources
  • Recommended is kind of the same but only for external reads
  • How-To is a duplication of our Web site but collaborative
  • Organizing is a weird mixture of all of the above
  • Market Place is the wild west of third-parties

I think we lack at least one category for Strategy (or whatever name we agree on) where discussions such as this one, the OTSconf branding and What is NOT OpenTechSchool? should go. It should be low-noise/high-signal in contrast to General.
