[imc-korea] suggestion for name dilemma/이름 문제에 대한 제안

[Jeffrey Lazar]

I propose that we follow Nick's suggestion as well of choosing to go with imc-Korea, but explain fully our intentions to create real national participation in the core decision-making process. We should make "Seoul-ism/Seoul-centered thinking" an unacceptable -ism just as racism or fascism would be considered. We should be sensitive to organizing taking place outside of Seoul, and develop ideas to prevent any wielding of power due to region or domain name. Simply put, we need to express that we understand clearly what the problems that occured in places like Belgium were, and that we will not repeat that mistake. 

멋진 영문뒤 어색한 한문입니다... 
닉의 제안에 따라서 갑시다! 근데, 우리는 전체희의 결정과정에서 진실한 전국으로 참여하기를 만들 의도를 nimc 새imc팀에게 표현을 잘 해야 합니다. 반서울주의가 반인종주의 반페씨즘처럼 인정하지 못 하는 개념으로 생각하면 됩니다. 우리는 지역이나 도메인 이름대문에 부당한 권력이 생기지 않도록 노력을 해야 되는 사실을 인식하는 것을 전달도 해야 됩니다. 벨기에서 나타난 문제를 잘 이해하고 절대 그렇게 따라하지 않을 거라고 말도 하면 좋다고 생각해요.

Subject: Re: [imc-korea] Fwd: final application for your review

I have no objection against Nick's latest suggestion. There was a discussion going on till last night, without clear conclusion. As Doyoung has concern about naming like imc seoul, who is working both with nation-wide independent media activists and with imc collective, I think we should be considerate of his opinion.

Stick with imc-Korea if that's the name you want.  My suggestion is to
write an extra paragraph explaining that you will encourage media

activists around Korea to join your collective so that you are more
geographically diverse, or to start their own collectives, and if they
do, that you will share the site imc-korea with them and possibly
include separate city or region pages on your page.  I think people

might be afraid things will end up badly like imc-Belgium did when the
national site started before the local ones and then they didn't get
along.  The model of imc-Brazil where the separate cities grew out of

one main site and shard access is a better model.  Sound good?

peace
Nick
