Hi All, have you noticed this? Safaricom is listening... Al Kags ----------------------- Author, Living Memories. “IF THERE IS SUCH A THING AS Kenya, these stories belong to us all, just as the pictures in Kenya Burning document the trauma of a nation during the post-election violence. The age of history written by white males is well and truly over.” - Star Columnist, Betty Caplan in the East African Weekly Newspaper. http://living.alkags.com

Incase you missed on the info Al Kags is referring to : http://www.safaricom.co.ke/sifboard/web/index.php Over the years Safaricom, has built a solid reputation as a company whose success hinges significantly on a culture of constant innovation to address growing customer needs. The recent expansion of our data network has opened up greater opportunities to drive innovation. As a company, we have in the past made several attempts to include the local community in innovation principally through The Safaricom Innovation Forum. Even then, initial learning gained from wide consultation with the ICT community in Kenya is that there is great scope for improving and expanding these initiatives. This is out of the realization that Safaricom is a key stakeholder in the building of an established and active community of innovators and a culture of innovation in this country and beyond. Having considered carefully representations and suggestions from the ICT Community, we are actively pursuing the creation of a Safaricom Innovation Board comprising representatives from the public - and in particular direct stakeholders in innovation. We invite you to nominate individuals whom you feel we should consider inviting onto this board by filling the form and telling us about them. Nomination is open to individuals who have shown leadership in the ICT arena and who have a sharp grasp of the country’s needs and how technology can best be harnessed to address these.

Gentlemen, Ladies. I've just re-read the Safaricom Innovation Board initiative and I thank Al Kags for raising it on this list. I believe that skunkworks KE should have a representative on the board as it can be a channel for views and solutions from all innnovators on this community list. Therefore I'd suggest Phares Kariuki as a prime nominee, incase if he is willing to. Should Phares agree, we should jointly support and nominate him. What say you Phares? Me thots and corrections welcome. Rgds.

My thoughts are a bit different on Aki's ( which are acceptable). But instead of 'self-imposing' someone, why don't we ask those who are interested, within Skunkworks, to submit there names online and we see how that one can go. The potential nominees, IMHO, need to showcase, what they have to make them a likely nominee. This can include a portfolio of their works. An online election can then be done. And whoever has most of the votes, becomes the winner. Safaricom will be left to select whom they deem fit for the Board. If accepted, we can have a time limit for presenting names, (say three days), then two days for 'e-campaigning' and a day for 'e-election', hours for counting the votes (which should have some real-time results back-to-back). At the end of this, Skunkworks KE, through someone we've agreed can nominate our winner to serve on $afcom's Innovation Board. After which we just cross our fingers wait for the results from Safaricom and maybe have an e-tost, to our choice of nominee! My 20 cents! PS: I'm not in any way opposing Aki's choice! ______________________________________________

@Solomon, a tiny correction on my part. I do apologise and did not mean to impose it on anyone. The reason I thought about Phares is because of the effort he has put into the community. Its entirely upto Phares ( should he wish to ) and the community list to choose whomever they like. For me, I see Safaricom's initiative as a step forward and we should not loose this chance at being represented there, though the final decision is Safaricom's to make. Hopefully have someone we can nominate before the process closes. I'll support whomever the list choses and that person can count on my inputs if they feel is important to them. With Rgds. :-)

Thanks Aki for your correction. I also wish not to sound as though I'm uncomfortable with your choice. Phares has done tremendous work for Skunkworks KE, but I thought the idea of letting others who feel they have the zeal, to come forth. As you've put it, this is a step forward and therefore, personalizing will not help, but take us in circles. Any other nominee out there?
I rest my case for now. _______________________________________________

@Phares, firstly I'd like to say you have made a good decision of accepting the interest towards the board nomination. Those who are also interested and want to do this offline etc, I guess nothing should hold them back. Its really about the bottomline that in end this social platform needs a representative on the board and we pull our numbers together on nominations. We need process. Solomon had suggested it, can we implement and take this ahead. However, if we do not hear by a certain date ( as the closing date is 17th August ) we are in trouble and effectively have removed any chance of better prospects for developers etc on this platform. -- Rgds, "Skunkworks-KE is a social platform for technologists. It's where we hang out, talk, discuss, help out some poor soul with technology issues and share a drink once in a while. Then we part....and go do our thing "

may I suggest we get someone to create a nice google form that is simmilar to what safcom site has and the interested skunks can post their names and work they have done/profiles. Then we can decide on who to nominate based on that list. The information should be made public to the skunkers so that everyone gets a chance to review the interested people's profiles.

My suggestion was that, just as Aki had pointed out, Skunkworks KE has some representation on the Innovation Board. Since (not) all of us are interested, perhaps nominating one amongst us would work well. Two nominations have so far been made (Phares and GM), and time is too short for us to go in rounds. A public list can be of much help. I also understand it's not to serve in the big title Board, but some kind of creativity... to represent diverse players. Or maybe there is another way for nominating our interest on Board... On 06/08/2010, alkags@gmail.com <alkags@gmail.com> wrote:

I think I agree with what Al Kags says - its not a popularity contest. Let anyone who thinks they are capable nominate themselves. This gives skunks a better chance at representation. Am sure there are many people who might not be as vocal/active in skunks as others but might have done some good stuff out there and vice versa. If Safcom has its own selection criteria then limiting signup to a few might end up working against us - just because we think someone has done much doesnt mean safcom will think the same. If we have 100 people sign up we have a better chance of representation than if we have 2 or 3 nominees sign up. -Billy 2010/8/6 Solomon Mburu Kamau <solo.mburu@gmail.com>

@Alkags, thank you very much for responding and information provided. It'll help those who are interested. @Solomon. Let me share a view with you. You, me and some others see the bigger picture and understand the importance of representation. But things cannot work like that because we sometimes forget that we are a collection of various skills and minds. Many come to this list to socialize, explore, discuss, make contact with new listers, maybe make some new business, sometimes have a rant or two, even attend functions, get free tech support. The list is endless. Beyond that everyone is on their own, are members elsewhere or on the net. For many Skunksworks KE is a tech social past time and possibly a conduit to other things if and when the need arises, the sooner we embrace this ( those of us with other ideas ) the more we understand our limitations. This is the same in other lists too, not just here. There is nothing wrong with such and no one should take this negatively. Its actually a very positive thing because its more like an avenue of no commitments, no pressure or anything else, people already face this during the day at work etc. This my friend Solomon is the gene that needed to be cracked to be understood, those that came before us looking for change or organization or a community could not decipher and ended up frustrated at efforts of doing so. Lets give this thread a rest and let people do their thing. I'm a nuetral person and not interested in any nominations but I do know who gets mine. :-) -- Rgds, "Skunkworks-KE is a social tech platform "

I think the question no one seems to have asked is what exactly is this board empowered to do? What is its mandate? Is the decision of the board binding? How will it work? On Fri, Aug 6, 2010 at 11:50 AM, aki <aki275@googlemail.com> wrote:

Solomon, you dont have to buy it my friend. See it for yourself. :-) General comment : Today skunkworks is rocking. No one's looking over their shoulders about what content to put in blah blah but enjoying a social day out, besides their own schedules. And look at the creativity taking place.

This is what skunkers want, not organization, not structure, not procedure because they already have it wherever they are or go do their thing. I think I have finally defined my signature correctly. Guess why the webserver does not work? Because it was never meant to be a commercial, corporate or mission impossible state. No one gives a damn crap about it! :-))))) Whether it works or not, it does not stop skunks from doing what they want. Something I learnt. Though I did try, don't try and change skunkworks KE. Am going to give it a rest as I have been posting too much lately, so catch up soon on my thread to be posted on email. My only concern now remains with the issue of free support for commercial gainers because this is bad exploitation.
