    • Re: Who are our audiences? June 26, 2009
      Thanks Matt, That was a *really* useful insight into your various approaches, and this is a great question to end on. Even if it can be difficult for TPSE network members to answer who their audience are, having a hit-list of 'would like to meet' audiences would be a great starting point because it will enable us to […]

In this video clip that I've posted to the blog, Stephen sums it up: […]
    • Re: What existing initiatives and resources are out there? June 11, 2009
      Hi Julianne, Mark, All, Thanks for the reminder Julianne! I think this list was reflected in the priorities that came out on the 18th very clearly. I know it might seem like we're delving into everything in this discussion, but to try to figure out how to develop the communication tool, we need to discuss how to best achieve points 2 and 3, so ther […]
