For those new to the project I have provided the following links that will give you an insight into what has been discussed to this point.

Bluelight Stall - Part 2 http://www.bluelight.ru/ubb/Forum10/HTML/002585.html?reload=93
MELBOURNE
A major development has occured in Melbourne that I think must be mentioned. I have been contacted by RaveSafe and invited to attend their meeting next week. This is major leap forward for us and I will explain why. We always knew that one of our biggest battles was going to be to gain credibility and get our foot into doors. It is for this reason that we decided that we hold off on the Pill Testing aspect - slowly to implement it as we gained credibility.
RafeSafe are interested that we join up with them so we can run the pill testing aspect of their service - funding limitations do not permit them to travel down this road. RafeSafe are our foot in the door - they have many working relationships with many rave crews and will save us alot of ground work. So what I am saying is basically if we go down the track of working with RafeSafe we can fully implement the Pill Testing component.
Candyflip, ChemicalGeneration, johnboy I would really appreciate your assistance at this meeting. It's on Wednesday the 18/10 at 7.30pm - I'll post the address when I get home. Maybe we can have a chat about it tommorow night or set up a meeting the night before to discuss what we will present to RaveSafe.
Furthering discussions form the previous thread we also have the national issue of whether the project will be affiliated with the Bluelight site. There are many issues that we must consider, so this must be discussed before acted upon.
If it were under the Bluelight umbrella we need to consider:
1 - Some people due to their career will not be able to be linked directly to the stall due to the sensitive nature of Bluelight itself. As much as Bluelight has not been set up as a site to promote drug use - countless posts will point to this direction. This can be damaging to people's careers.
2 - Critics - If we decide to go down the path of sticking with Bluelight directly then we must put forward every scenario that our critics might throw at us - and have answers for them . We must have a strategic plan to know how to deal with these attacks and being referenced to a site in the media's eyes as promoting drug use.
If we go down the track of not being affiliated with Bluelight then we must consider:
1 - Do we keep the Bluelight name - will we be linked to the site, if not what name do we use.
There are many things we must discuss - so let the people speak!
Thank You
