A few of us who work in FE or are interested in how openness might pan out in FE have started a community in Google+, the idea being that we can post comments there and also get into video chats ('hang-outs' in googlespeak) at the touch of a button. If you are interested we need to invite you to take part as we have kept the community private (not very open, I hear you say!).

The only snag is that you need to register with google if you haven't already done so. When you have done that, just go to the H817 Forum and post your email into the thread about FE. We'll invite you after that.
