[CIMC-working] Re: PROPOSED: TABD protests in chicago

[Doug Morris]

This was sent to the global www-features list to inform them about decision 
on the feature title and to clarify further the response to an inquiry 
there about how we decide about features:

Josh and all,

The feature title for the TABD block has been finalized: actions against 
corporate vampires.

If you wouldn't mind changing the word "vampirism" (perhaps a rather vague 
neologism) to "vampires" in the story archive, that would be great.

The problem was:  The folks trying to finish of the feature block could not 
contact anybody.
The person who corrected the title tried calling 9 people.  Everybody was 
out and about.

And in summary as far as process:
In Chicago, we have an editorial working group that implements new features 
by consensus.

For pre-planned special actions/events action, we usually ask a couple of 
people volunteer to be point persons to edit story blocks for the center 
panel quickly as events develop.  That process fell through the cracks this 
time.  Oh well...  we'll probably remember next time.

Best, Doug
