====================================================
> Working
Groups
> Since 2004 OURMedia/NUESTROS Medios had been organized through
the
'steering
> committee' list . However, it became clear that one
group is not enough.
At
> the OURFuture Plenary in Sydney, a system of
Working Groups was set up.
The
> working groups organized through
listservs and document their work on wiki
> pages (collectively edited
webpages like this one). Any ourmedia member is
> free to join, read
archives and/or comment.
> --> to join a working group, contact the
facilitator
> --> to check what the working groups have been doing, go
to the archive
and
> wiki page of each list

> OURMedia
Plenary List
> This is the OURmedia 'Virtual Plenary' to which all

working groups. Details to be discussed by WG1.
