Good to see you've posted the asset mapping to gwn. Might I also suggest copying it and posting it as a blog, as Cylia did for Cedar Cottage? Then we can feature it -- this kind of posting can inspire others to do the same elsewhere. Also, we collected contact info from most people at the meetup, so I think I can tease out some or most of the people that participated in your village. If you remember any names, that might help as well. (It might be a few days before I can get to it.)
How to best asset map on the site? Something we need to think about more, esp as I think we're going to do a lot of it..
Oh, one other thought -- starting a "discussion" rather than just posting as a comment, sometimes reaches more village members -- discussion posts generate an email to everyone (unless they've tuurned that function off); whereas someone will only see a comment if they go to the page.
Think that's it for now.
I'll pass this along to Sid as well.
Cheers,

Just a quick welcome for now to Village Vancouver! I see you've already joined the Food Network and the Community Gardening Group - great! I'd also like to encourage you to join your local transition village - grandview woodland neighbourhood.
Cheers,
Ross
