I don't share the actual fashion to evaluate any collectivity, or try to 
artificially extract some common vision. The diversity of nettime, the 
margins of nettime are its strengh, and nettime info pages + wikipedia 
pages + 28 years of archives + texts about Nettime are enough to 
understand what it is, as living organism with fluctuating shapes.
Any attempt to achieve a community definition could be detrimental to 
this diversity.
