Communications -- Solutions/Ideas
Its pretty clear that many people are not "in the loop" when it comes to the decision-making process and outputs of the FIRST in Michigan group.

So, please post your solutions and ideas for improving this situation. Feel free to identify a problem, but remember to focus on solutions.


Problem: There is a perception that FIRST in Michigan decisions and decision-making process is not open enough.

Ideas for solution: The members of FIRST in Michigan could identify themselves and their affiliations so people could see just who is involved. Who is a core member making decisions, who is a member that is involved, and who is getting the information produced by this group?

FIRST in Michigan members (other than Jim and Dan who are already doing it) could participate more in the discussions on this forum, which would help people know that FiM people are listening.

FIRST in Michigan could start some form of newsletter or website to communicate what is going on. Also, some email communication could be started to provide updated information to teams in Michigan (we know the email list works because we got that letter from Dean).
