Interesting you point this out in the midst of a book discussion.
Why do I say that? Well, Stephen and I (and others) have wondered a
couple of times how we should "steer" FRIAM and the mail list. Just
stay with a list as it is? Augment it with a Wiki or community
blog? Have a couple of specialized sub-lists? (An example of a sub-
list is WedTech, just a local bunch of folks who can meet on
Wednesday noon for lunch and a complexity chat). Projects? (Nick's
MOTH model and analysis is an example.) .. and now possibly a book?
The Edge
http://www.edge.org/certainly does supply an interesting direction for FRIAM in terms of
a web site with a bit more structure. Its is "moderated" by
Brockman, a very creative publisher and editor.
Not that the list would disappear, but it would have interesting
parallel efforts.
