interviews needed?
Are there any organisations or individuals that we really should interview for this taskforce? I was thinking that it might be good to get thoughts from the people behind the internet archive. What about some of the people in organisations that we already have some form of alliance with (e.g. CreativeCommons, EFF, OLPC...)?
It would be very interesting to exchange ideas with CC, plus a interview/overview of one academic alliance, perhaps the National Library of Germany/WM Deutschland or even the Bundesarchive/WMD. For example, in Spain, the Biblioteca Nacional, invite us to a alliance of this kind, but we still don't have a proper chapter.
What about including online organisations and communities: dmoz.org, craislist.com
It might be good to talk to some people in Students for Free Culture (http://freeculture.org/). I think we can learn a lot from their model of on-the-ground activism in university settings.
yes, but isn't that more for the "movement roles" or "community health" taskforce - unless you're suggesting that they're a good organisation to partner with?
Basically, I don't think any of the recommendations from here should name any specific organisation as "we should partner with xyz group". Rather, any discussions with other groups should be about what kind of partnerships they've done.
