While I'd love to have the mayor here discussing issues - and have told her
so - the mayor's office is complying with a different facet of
Minneapolis-Issues. We don't just discuss, we need something to talk about.
That's why we ask, on our home page:
Official bodies and civic organizations are highly encouraged to send
meeting announcements, agendas, and information on new online resources in
text format to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
I appreciate Ann Freeman sending something, anything to the list. It's fine
to agitate for the mayor's deeper involvement - email her directly, too! --
but lets not dis what she does send, especially when it complies with our
charter stated at http://www.e-democracy.org/mpls/
Cap O'Rourke very graciously (and very recently) pledged to participate in
this forum. If I may interject a personal, non-list-manager word of advice:
Cap only recently made his (?) pledge; let's try reminding him respectfully,
rather than calling him a liar.
David Brauer
List manager, Minneapolis-Issues

All we get are press releases marketing the Mayor on this list. Isn't this
suppose to be a discussion list? We've invited our honorable Mayor to
participate, but obviously she has declined through her silence - kind of
like the rest of her agenda. I guess, Cap's statements about the Mayor
participating in all forums is absolutely not true.
