Dear all,

So we still seem to lack a way to identify the core drafting group. I think this group should schedule a Skype call *immediately* (who can make it on Tuesday afternoon?) and brainstorm ideas for the grant, discuss a bit the budget, etc. If we are to succeed we need a pretty solid draft by Friday. During the meeting we would go through the existing proposals, and transform them into a feasible work package; and then plan how to flesh this out into a proposal.

I suggest that this group consists of Kasia on our behalf (I'm travelling this week and committing to drafting will be difficult), Jonas, Teresa, Christian, John - as they suggested specific proposals. 5 seems like a good number :).

As for the proposal - I second Teresa's proposal to focus on the objective: " Support for the trans-national circulation of cultural and artistic works and products" and to combine one major, shared  "action"  with a range of distributed but coordinated outreach activities that support it. The plan described by Teresa in a comment is for me pretty good, one thing that I would think more about is what's exactly the "wiki loves art"-type action that we want to do. I like the idea of focusing the action upon public cultural institutions and some form of collaboration with them. maybe there's a way of recycling a previous 'translating the PD' proposal? (enclosed find initial notes and a grant proposal we once filed with icommons, for ASEF funding). ANother alternative would be for me to focus on education / OER. But I think more of us are working in the cultural sector.

The proposal for policy work is also good, but it's a totally separate activity. we can try arguing  that the policy work is necessary to create a legal environment in which the activities from the other section can flourish.

I imagine that we could set up two teams working independently on fleshing out the two proposals.

This all also depends on the budget - we should prepare preliminary budgets and see how we are doing with own funding. I imagine each partner org will have to declare some level of own commitment it can make? This is something that needs to be also discussed during the call.

By the way, Jonas, can you make the document editable to everyone?

all the best,

Alek
