The Campaign for Commons Literacy is definitely progressing although not as rapidly as we would like it.

<BR>
Even more important than those figures is the outpouring of interest and solidarity that triggers good conversations, in which people from different continents and walks of life tell us about their enthusiasm for getting involved with the campaign in various ways. So the Campaign is already becoming what it was intended to: one of the dynamic hubs of the commons movement. <BR>
<BR>
Another important news is that we’re merging with the Commons Learning Alliance, under the name of School of Commoning. By the end of next week, we plan to launch the Campaign Commons, a multi-platform web space, centered on the SoC site as its coordination and learning hub. <BR>
<BR>
We are also planning to use James Quilligan visit to the UK later this month, to feature him in our Meetings with Remarkable Commoners that you graciously inaugurated in May. In December, we hope to introduce Silke Helfrich to the London commoning scene, in the same series.<BR>
