| This is an open project. The solution to the problems you raise is |
| 7 |
| incredibly simple: Contribute on a regular basis, or find other |
| 8 |
| people who will do so. |

Pay attention to the original email. One of the problems Christel |
| 11 |
mentioned was that contributions were being deliberately distorted by |
| 12 |
the GWN editors. Finding more contributors won't help with that |
| 13 |
problem; only replacing or fixing the editors will. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
| Writing hugely demotivating emails, scaring away existing |
| 16 |
| contributors, and wasting the council's time will not help at all. |

How motivating would you say it is to have your words twisted by the |
| 19 |
GWN staff when you do try to contribute? How motivating would you say |
| 20 |
it is to watch people try to brush genuine problems under the carpet |
| 21 |
and attack anyone who points them out? |
