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.

We have people on the list attending, but it's not the same as official 'skunkworks' attendees... On Tue, Apr 19, 2011 at 9:36 PM, David Kiania | Asentric Consulting Ltd < kianiadee@gmail.com> wrote:

@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.

talking of that, what happened to one alex gakuru? On Wed, Apr 20, 2011 at 10:04 AM, Peter Karunyu <pkarunyu@gmail.com> wrote:
