I am just wondering was skunkworks as a forum been invited for the
Connected Government conference in Diani?. I have my reservations
which goes to show that beyond a noisy mailing list we are not
perceived to have any input into policy.

Of course I could be wrong, this is one of few instances I wish I am.

@D, you might be surprised the reach "Skunkworks" has. Personally, saying "I am from Skunkworks" has opened two rather interesting doors for me, even though I did it in jest :-)

There was this ICT Board breakfast @ Intercon several days ago, one current skunk and one former skunk were mentioned in a rather important context. Daudi Were and Alex Gakuru.

So, Skunkworks as forum may not have been invited, but most likely it is represented.
