I'm with Tony, Alex and Tara (nothing new there) on the first reaction to Karen's post, starfish please. The parallel services approach seems interesting though and Karen's precisions do seem more in line with my thinking than the original understanding I had.
As for the potential non profit and the salon, I'd like to remind everyone that although people from spaces in the US are VASTLY more numerous and active here, this is still an international movement and non profits based in the US and salons held there are either (depending on structure) not useful (different laws/requirements and such) for others and wayyy more expensive to get to. The salon idea is interesting but will gather largely the same few people who are already traveling a lot and can match their travels with meetings or travel on points or whatever. I don't mind per se, I'll use the stream and keep an eye on northeast action in case I can make it but I just thought I'd throw it in there to keep in the back of your mind ;). In the same vein, I'd encourage international coworking spaces to pipe up more often on the list, I know for those on different timezones on other continents it might feel like the discussion is over and everything's been said by the time you get to the messages but please, throw in your opinions and "votes" more often.
