As I've said in my workshops I think you need to build a community and the easiest ways of doing that is asking questions and supplying answers to a list like this as well as having the odd casual get together. The latter doesn't need to be formal, have an agenda, or anything like that, just a catch up after work will do. Trying to host something yourself too early will just turn into a distraction and potentially burn out the people involved. Also I think you also need to drive anything you do from inside of PNG. You know the issues better than anyone else and if you're in the driving seat then you can address those issues rather than get side tracked by stuff that might be of interest to outsiders but isn't of much interest to you.

Also you need to be inclusive. If someone shows any interest then drag them in :-) I get the impression that some managers treat knowledge as a state secret but that's not helping anyone in the long term.

Just my K2 worth :-)
