In the report on Brython activity I mentioned the core values document that we had developed. At that time this had not been published. Following comments about this here and the fact that an article won't be in Pentacle until Imbolc at the earliest it has been decided to post the document on the newly updated Brython website. You will find it at: www.dunbrython.org.uk/about/ [Edit on 1 Nov 09 as per Teg's post below. Please note location now changed to www.dunbrython.org.uk/corevalues/ ]If you have any questions about any of it or comments please make them here  |

Wonderful piece of writing, respect to the authors. I really like the direction Brython is heading. Found two stray apostrophes though  |

you're as pendantic as we are Sorry Potia, I'm still messing around with the site. The Core Values document is now at: www.dunbrython.org.uk/corevalues/which is a bit more descriptive. |

6th line: belief's - grocer's apostrophe 8th line: us, - superfluous comma 14th line: missing the word 'to' 29th line: academic led - missing a hyphen? 38th line: it’s - oh the pain that apostrophe causes me  Pedantic? Me? Why thank you, good sir. |

I know it was decided in the first meeting on creating Brython. Maybe someone who was there would like to answer that? |

Actually you aren't quite right there Arth. In the Brython -Glossary thread at: caerfeddwyd.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=brython&action=display&thread=971&page=2 Little Raven wrote on Oct 13 2008: "Whilst the group/concept may be known as Brython, I don't think that's enough for naming of the Tylwyth. I would suggest that when we come together we do so under a greater, common umbrella and name ourselves in the fashion of the ancient tribes. May I make a suggestion? Tylwyth Rigantona. She has ben associated with Brython from the start, to the point of being considered a patron. She is the mother of the herd, the community, and represents the sovreignty we look to reclaim." In following posts it was mentioned that the Grey Mare was felt to be present at the Flag Fen meeting but Brython had already been in existence for some time prior to that meeting. The Flag Fen meeting was also not about Brython although several members attended and I think it did add fuel to the glowing embers of Brython. The idea of the tribe being named for Rigantona was swiftly agreed upon as the Grey Mare is of importance in one way or another to many of those in Brython if not all of us Megli provided his linguistic expertise and stated: "It should be (IMHO) either 'Tegoluktos Rigantonas' [Rigantonas was the genitive case of Rigantona] or Tylwyth Rhiannon, but not, I think, a mixture." |

thinking about it, that Facebook group would be one way for people to petition for entry to CF I think. They could post an intro over there, much more personable and friendly, then they could be let in over here? I only suggest it because signing up here and posting an intro could be a bit intimidating, but posting on Facebook isn't as much. We also get to see the person, know who they are, so no anonymous people sneaking in. Also it shows commitment, they're not afraid to put their name to it - would weed out the less than serious. (I assume mostly everyone has a Facebook account = setting up a Facebook account to set up a CF account is a bit silly)

(I assume mostly everyone has a Facebook account 1. Not everyone has access to Facebook. If you use a work computer many businesses ban social networking sites. What's more, a lot of people with personal computers stay away from them because of security issues, which are regularly publicized. 2. People do uses aliases on Facebook and not everyone has a picture, either. 3. No, not everyone has a Facebook account. I know many people who boycott the site and refuse to use it. In summary: you may find you alienate people should you choose to use this method of screening people. |
