And I, too, think the questions to be an admirable first attempt. But, 
I  wonder about a few things, like, what is the nature of a 
collaboratory in the first place.
        Does a collaboratory require/need/want leaders?
       Who asks the questions?
       When a collaboratory performs self-assessment, how is that done?
       Indeed, what is a collaboratory?    (02)

Would Tom's "fair sample" best be generated by circulating the 
meta-question "what questions should we be asking of ourselves?"    (03)

To be fair, my questions here are typical of reactionaries, and most 
groups have at least one of them, and I also think that Eugene and Chris 
have done Doug Engelbart's vision proud in starting blueoxen in the 
first place.    (04)
