November-07-2008: While I was away
I have just completed the 9 weeks of primary site work & Related inspections for a major shopping centre that My employing company was involved in. To be honest I quite enjoyed my self out there doing field work. I had ample opportunities to explore the barrier between Theory and Practical application of Electrical Reticulation. The insight gained by working with veterans of the field has been both inspiring and eye opening.

While I was away, I've been popping in every now and again to check on my watch list and other areas of interest around this virtual campus. Needless to say that a lot has happened. Some unbelievable, and some down right unforgivable.

Yet through all that I dare say this community emerged out of it ( obviously not in one piece ), and we continue to work towards a common goal despite any differences we may have. To me conflict is not so important as the methods employed to resolve it. I dare say we have learned our lesson when it comes to conflict resolution and following protocol in achieving it. We obviously need to improve on policy of conflict resolution.

What i yearn for is a way to get back those skilled editors we have lost as a result of the recent events. I don’t think it is at all possible to replace a skilled editor, and we have to face the truth that they were very good at what they did.

I have also started preparing my self for activities I would to get involved or start here in 2009. I am also planning to attend the Wikimania 2009, depending on funding I will get to supplement what i will have saved up that point. For now though, I want to concentrate on those courses I started during the course of the year.
