Open Discussions: transparency; we want to be PART of the discussion, to guide the discussionSelf-Management of the crowd: “Matt Johnson referrs to it as a late-development of the crowd” and I agree.The goal is to get an ROI on the crowd.

If you don’t create the formum, then you WILL be excluded from the discussion. It is better to be part of the forums, and officialy sanctioned to guide dicsussions and set policies than to participate in a forum that the “crowd” dreamed up and has absolute control over.
