Driving home from work I brainstormed the tagline "A Convergence of Divergent Minds" or "A Convergence of Divergent Thinkers" something like that. Convergence is obviously everyone from different places, abilities, backgrounds coming together. Divergent minds speaks to those who are autistic, as well as neurotypicals who choose to think differently from the pack to understand the importance of neurodiversity in society.
Still trying to come up with a name that reflects our main goals...
This is way cool. I love it.
@Ken G: I'm totally digging those Neurodiversity images. Let's get something like those going.
I think what we need to do, regarding the name, is to come up with say 3 or 4 options that everybody thinks are good, and then create a poll where people can vote for which one they prefer (so we are doing this diplomatically). Once we have determined the winning vote, we can then ask alex to make a final say on it.
Alternatively, we can draw up a list of name ideas, then send the list to alex where he can choose.
So far, I believe a large proportion of us have agreed on "AutWorld" so that can be our first option.
I also like where you are going SC_2010, but I feel the name also needs to somehow reflect that this is both a WP founded and Autism gathering, plus I feel the title itself needs to be quite short and snappy - so people can remember and refer to it easily (although then we could elaborate further with a subtitle). However, this is just my perspective - thus making it only one persons opinion. It's very important we create a democratic decision-making process for the big decisions otherwise we will quickly descend into chaos.
