But I am not sure I can answer it directly. I mean, I could, but I don't think that would capture my meaning. What I can do is comment in a roundabout way. What strikes me is that TWederation is a great MECHANISM that is attempting, and looks like its a achieved, a way not to have server dominated communications. Essentially a kind of down-to-earth networking system? My difficulty is, I think, I'm not so clear about what is the MECHANISM & what is(are) the PURPOSE(S). You and Jed list many ways it could be used. But *I'm* still unclear on what the MAIN purpose(s) is(are). What does it ADD? Why is it BETTER than GoogleGroups? WHAT would a normal user GAIN? Stuff like that. Its great that you working on all this and concerned. I don't mean to be negative. For a user like me I still feel I need to hold back a bit longer so I'm a bit clearer what I might use it FOR.
