What is the purpose of 90 Minds? What is this group? What do we want it to be?

My understanding was that sageresellers was the mutual support arm and 90 Minds was meant to be a marketing extension of that group with membership optional for a fee. It seems that 90 Minds has transformed and become the mutual support arm and that it thinks about becoming a marketing group occasionally. If we want it to be a marketing group as well as a mutual support group, we should decide that sooner rather than later. That way we can decide where to go with bylaws and our budget. That's also a question that those of us with an affiliation with DSD needs to have a separate conversation with Doug about how that fits with the DSD group, but that's not really an issue for this group to worry about. Also, do we want to help the group find and evaluate other products?

1. Collaboration around technical issues 2. Marketing (supplement our own efforts) 3. Mutual shared support In order of my needs -- and I think that number 1 is where we are now.

I think we need to streamline the 90 Minds brand, It's too confusing to explain different options. We should have a 90 Minds and within that group could be subcommittees. While it would be great to think that we could collaboratively invest in exploring other products --- ie shared licensing/authorization --- that may be more difficult to do as a full group vs a special committee..
