Morgaine,

Thanks for asking.  My interest is to listen to specific concerns voiced by the majority of the community and (more importantly) take proposed solutions to those concerns under advisement before the policy becomes effective on April 30.  It won't be very productive for anyone if it's just a grousing session about legal theory or hypothetical situations that may or may not occur in the future.  Yes, I will take all serious proposals back into the company for serious consideration.  But, make no mistake, I'm not asking for a change set that makes one person happier at a time.  I'm looking for the minimum change set that represents the broadest possible consensus among the community of TPV authors.

So, yours are good questions, and I do intend to champion the TPV community's collective voice in this process.  I hope we emerge with something actionable out of these meetings.

Joe, nowhere do you say that you are going to feed the community response back to the people who drafted the TPV, in order to seek change.  Was that implied?  Nor do you say that you are going to champion the TPV community's needs with the appropriate Lindens after your 3 meetings.  Was that implied?

Although I would like to think that both of the above were implied, your paragraph does not actually say that.  It can also be read as intending nothing more than a one-way process of explaining the intent to us, calming the restless natives as it were.  Could you please quash this ungenerous reading, and state that your intention is indeed to get the TPV document improved, and that you will do what you can to make that happen?


Morgaine.

Hello, all.  I've been reading the ongoing commentary here, on various blogs, irc, and in-world groups about the recently introduced Third Party Viewer Policy and Directory and I'd like to host an "office hour" or informal brown bag to make the conversation a little more synchronous for those who are interested.  I plan to hold three of these over the next couple of weeks, at times that might be friendlier for some than others, but the first one will happen next Tuesday, 4/13 at noon PDT.  I'd like to address questions about the intent of the policy, how we will be using the Directory going forward, and see if I can gather the specific concerns that have been raised by the community over the past several weeks.  It'll be an informal Q&A session, held in voice, at this location:

No RSVP needed, and feel free to rebroadcast the invite to others you think would benefit from open dialog around the subject.

I hope to see many of you there next week.
