I'd like to propose that some of us get together and write some articles 
that (attempt to) put an end to the FUD that's being published by news 
and industry trade journals. As an example:

http://www.technewsworld.com/story/41931.html

We all know that there are a number of points that are misrepresented 
here. However, our voices are _not_ being heard. I think its time to go 
on the offensive, and publish some articles that actually state the 
truth, instead of the misrepresentations about Muni-networks that are 
all we see in publications today.

To that end, please email me off list if you are interested in 
participating. We need (a) people who can write and represent some level 
of institutional involvement (for example, you are an ISP, work for the 
gov't, do work through a WCN, etc), and (b) places to publish. For (b), 
I mean print publications and their online sites. Blogs are great (Glen 
Fleishman has done a wonderful job here), but they don't reach the 
average american, and that's who we need to reach.
