Re: [oldboys] FAQ #6 and #7


Hi Connie, et al!

Thanks for this list - it answers questions I was just preparing to ask. 
But why start at 6 ;) Personally, I don't mind a core group... I don't
think
that should deter from the function of a network, as long as it is clear
who
and what the coregroup are... 

The OBN project groups definition is great - but I have say, having this
list available to the public might hinder the impact of certain
actions...
Is it possible to open a password protected channel for the planning of
more 
secretive revolutionary cyberfem actions? 
 
I'm also curious if there is an official backbone? Like a foundation or
some other "legal body" that can channel resources.  And it would be
interesting 
to know how many of us are on this list - 50 or 500? 
I guess 5000 is unlikely... 



viele gruesse, 

diana




> 6. What is the regulating structure of OBN?
> The Mode is the Message - the Code is the Collective!
> 
> 6.1. Every member of the OLD BOYS NETWORK is required to call herself a woman (without consideration of the biological base of this intelligent life-form).
> 
> 6.2. The functions of organisation, execution and responsibility of and for the work are shared - there is no chief.
> 
> 6.3. Project groups with distinct sets of people can be set by the initiative of at least three OBN members. The projects have to be introduced and discussed on the <oldboys> mailing list. The groups have to report back to the list.
> 
> 6.4. Every member has agreed to find a personal position in response to the question: What is 'Cyberfeminism', based on her scientific or artistic work. Each will have agreed to share and support the efforts which will contribute to the potential of this term on an international level.
> 
> 6.5. With regard to its contents - the elaborations of 'cyberfeminisms' - our aim is the principle of disagreement!
> 
> 7. How can I become a member?
>   Cyberfeminism is not about membership, but about activity. As soon as you have developed your personal approach to Cyberfeminism, you are a Cyberfeminist. And as soon as you actively contribute to the OBN context, you become an Old Boy.
