Working at MIT allowed me to get close to the people in the business school that study innovation and some of their findings help me realize how much substrates help and shape growth. So, yeah, labs is an example meta-innovation: innovation on how to innovate and once I realized that, it was just an exercise of coming up with guidelines that would not collide or disrupt the existing foundation practices and some 200 email messages on the members@ list were exchanged to polish them until what the board approved. >From where I stand, it seems that this is something that a lot of people are happy about, myself first and I'm really looking forward to the positive energy that all this will generate. So, thanks for your nice words and welcome aboard! -- Stefano. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
