<tt><font size="3">Hi Jesus,<br>
</font></tt><br>
<tt><font size="3">the reason is that the LD is not an AALOA document. AALOA was only<br>
mandated to organize the work on the LD in an open way without any<br>
"back-stage" decision making. Apparently, the experience of the<br>
participants of AMB'11 was that at least this level of trusting the<br>
AALOA governing board is possible, which is already something. Me<br>
personally am very happy with that. Having this in mind, we tried not to<br>
discuss the "how"s too much in order to have a chance to converge. De<br>
facto, most of the projects supporting the LD are not linked with AALOA<br>
(even some of the people having joined the group on aalforum.eu do not<br>
have any link to AALOA). What does AALOA gain? At least, it becomes more<br>
known. Although one result of this could be that new people might decide<br>
to join, for me personally, however, it is more important that at this<br>
stage, we attract a certain level of trust that we really stand for<br>
openness, "co-opetiton" (see the manifesto), and convergence even if<br>
one might not share some of our concrete ideas.<br>
