People for an IOPS GroupIs This Group For You?
We have a continually evolving Statement that presents a set of claims about Vision and Strategy core to the definition and purpose of this group. The Statement can be read via the top link in the left menu. If you read the Statement and find that you agree strongly with its points of unity, albeit also perhaps feeling the need for further exploration and refininement, the People for a Participatory Society Group may be for you. If you find the statement to your liking and you remain eager to participate, the next step could be to learn more about the group using other entries in the left menu above the yellow box. Finally, if still interested, you might wish to read diverse content from group members that appears on this page, and perhaps also to email some members and converse about your interests and the Group. But at any rate, if the time arrives when you are sure that you wish to join the Group, the means to do so is simply to click the Join link in the content box at the top of the third column on this page!
