Akvo is *definitely* the right answer for the "main drive" - places where things basically work and they've got resources to do capital investment, however small, on moving further forwards.

Nearly all of my stuff is pointed squarely at the frayed edge, the torn margin, where things have fallen apart too far for investment in conventional vehicles to help. I'm really focussed on people who can carry all they own, more or less.

Still, I shall be surprised if *nobody* I know wins one of these, and I suspect the first step is to fan it out into a more general "this is how you use the internet to spread around what works" platform and, at this point, AKVO's the logical starting point for that.

I mean, if I was implementing the health plan because google coughed up, wouldn't RSR be a logical starting point?
