[Dialogue] Preaching & Meddling re the future of ToP tools <grin>

[steve har]

Regarding Sunny's Amusing comment about preaching & meddling -I take it as
a sign of good hearted humor- I hope other readers do to! <grin>

Here's the Sunny Walker quote:
"So now you've quit preaching & gone to meddling? <Grin>
Sunny Walker ~ sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile".

What if Preaching and Meddling for the positive Future of ToP and ICA-USA
 is a Possibility?

One if the places I'd like to invite preaching & meddling for the future is
the shape of the ToP License in 5+ years.

One way to look toward the future of a program like ToP  is to invite an
open and appreciative inquiry of what works well and what could put in that
would open up the future say in 2025. What's the current
-innovation
-current and future user groups
-enhanced capacity being created
-what does a future tool set look like in 5+ years?
-what are breakthrough improvements?

I think it would be a lively Electric Collegium, don't you?

One way to hear this suggestion, of course, is preaching and meddling [or
worse] about past and current limitations. Not the right future focus to my
taste.

Wondering what provocative propositions you might offer for the future of
ToP?  If you had 8 or 10 people to really have a lively online inquiry who
would make a contribution -and not get stuck in old stuff. Any users? Any
competitors? Any newly certified practitioners? Any of the original
designers?

How about one or several 50 minute sessions some time in April or May. I'll
take the time to set it up any way you wish. I really will take the time to
set it up to your specifications. We can record it and make it available
widely on a private YouTube channel.

Don't you think the future of ToPs would be a lively and valuable Electric
Collegium?

I sure do, Top has great power. It probably also has some limitations which
would be useful to identify in service of the future.

How might you and others  talk about a breakthrough in the ToP tool set,
users, enhanced capacity, I wonder?

Please listen to this as respectful inquiry and a suggestion not something
else. I'm asking a friendly question and I hope for a friendly answer in
return. [probably no answer is some kind of lost in the  in email and text
thread inbox phenomenon.]

Hoping you get the message -Sunny- and I hope you might respond.

Thoughts?
