Since discussions on the mailing list have been a bit slow, I thought
I'd switch things around a bit, and publish the report first, *then* try
to solicit more discussion.
So, here is what I know about what you want so far:
To put it as briefly as possible, what you want is a flexible, always
up-to-date database of visual arts in the region, that can be delivered
in various media and formats, and can underpin differently targeted
audience development campaigns, and can also link to national and global
visual arts debates, and evolve into a local resource for critical
discourse about artistic practice, with bells on.

Please feel free to disagree, comment, amend, and invite people to give
a second opinion. You have a week to check it out (for the time-poor the
meat of it is summarised in about 200 words at the beginning), and get
back to me to have your comments included in the all-singing all-dancing
illustrated pdf version that will be published on the 30th June.
Otherwise, there are no plans to shut down the wiki, blog, live chat or
google group, so feel free to use them!
Cheers,
Saul.
