inviting people to join this group

Petros we haven't been introduced. I assumed from your name that you were greek and hence greek speaking. Perhaps it would be good to introduce ourselves more formally.
I learned to program in my 20s and then started making Drupal software for LETS in 2004. In 2008 I went full time moneyless nomad networking and co-founded Community Forge, which hosts around 120 active LETS groups. Now I'm building CES 2.0 in Drupal and working on developing the intertrading proposal I mentioned elsewhere and looking to do more teaching and human work such as this MOOC http://iflas.blogspot.com/2014/12/money-and-society-mooc.html.

:D I am not good in formal behaviours, but I will do my best.
I am a traveling storyteller (in an archetypical sense), currently in transition from anarchopositivism to Bookchin's communalism. I am acting as a full time social contributor in Thessaloniki. My base website is https://freelab2014.wordpress.com

And no, I am not formal in any sense whatsoever. :-)

hehe, yes I also thought that Petros is greek! This makes me the only greek in this group, which is a big responsibility I cannot take :-) (especially if you think that I am not an expert in CCs and I don't live in Greece)

So, before saying goodbye for today, I would like to add a point that I think is important:
This obviously needs to be lead by Greek people. There are many initiatives in Greece and I am sure they have similar discussions between them right now.

But what is important to note is that in Greece there is a lot of polarization and most of these initiatives are "coloured" politically; and they are often somehow "exclusive" (if not intentionally, for sure it happens unintentionally),

I would need more time to explain, but I will just say that I believe that to this end the role of external experts can be very beneficial. The ‘Credit Commons for Greece’ goes into the right direction but depending on how and from whom will start, there is the danger to engage and affect only the "one side". But for an alternative economy to work in a sustainable way, we need also the "other side" to be part of it.

I will jump to my suggestion: before setting up a web site I think that some key people need to meet in person and decide a strategy that has some new elements compared to what has been tried in the past, and an inclusive and pragmatic vision given the current social, economic and political reality in Greece.

The CommonFest is a good opportunity for this to bootstrap and perhaps there is already sth planned and we could join. If not, this is in my opinion a first concrete step that we could take: to organize a "credit commons assembly" and invite all people involved in such initiatives to start a serious discussion. We could even invite Varoufakis to listen! :-)

If you can keep Mr. V from talking ;-)
From my side, while better part of my soul is Greek, I will be more than happy to see this project managed and developed by anybody wishing to. As I said -- it is not a business project for me, it is the necessary (I believe) contribution to the society I love. So, whoever wishes to push it ahead, be my guest. :-)
Meanwhile, I will do my best to act as a placeholder for some "True Greeks" ;)
Panayotis, would you care to start a subgroup for the assembly organization? I volunteer Thessaloniki as a location, if nobody minds.

The only reason I think this should be started by Greeks is that because this needs to be rooted in localities and it can succeed at scale only if there are many strong and self-sustained local initiatives. And speaking the language and knowing in depth the culture is a very important requirement in my opinion. Personally, living abroad for 12 years makes me feel already an "outsider" and entitled mostly to share ideas :-)

As for the assembly I think it would work best at a location where there are already some people gathered and perhaps the CommonFest is ideal. I will think of it, contact some people I know who could take the lead, and get back to you as soon as I have something concrete to propose.

In the mean time, please don't wait for me ... things are very complex anyway and noone knows the secret of success. It is a "multitude-like" approach that I think will work best :-)
