Where are we at - after calling for an assistant to help James Samuel?

Firstly, an apology if you were offended by my (James) stating amongst other things I would like a female assistant. This is probably not something I would do in the future - at least not without consulting the members of this group. I am happy to open up a discussion if anyone is interested in why I was so specific in my description of my needs.

Here's a quick update on the responses to that call for help. The response was amazing and prompt, with five people responding within 24 hours, from transition initiatives located in different parts of the country.

* Richard Lee in Kaitaia - moving soon to Warkworth, still in Northland and both TT's
* Heather Powell in Manukau
* Kristy in Whakatane
* Natalie in Lower Hutt
* Anne Fitzsimons in Nelson

The ideas are evolving for how we can work as a team of people. For the last few days the dialogue has been by phone and email, and I am inviting it to move here where other ideas might be offered that we havent thought of yet.
