Yep.
you were each invited because we wanted you to be a participant in
helping us launch this project. It doesn't mean that you have to
commit "x" hours to it. But we recognized you as motivated citizens
and experts in one of the related fields and wanted your input on how
this community of practice should be encouraged in Canada. And we
wanted your support in launching this space because we really believe
that this shouldn't be the pet project of one university or one NGO.
We want this to be a *real* grassroots, citizen-initiated,
pan-canadian movement.
In terms of co-founding, that means choosing to support this project
because you believe that the goal is worthwhile and that we are going
about this in a realistic, responsable way.
