And I understand. A lot could get misunderstood if somebody starts prematurely blogging about ideas that are still in development/negotiation and haven't been fully worked out yet. Makes sense.

As a domestic road warrior, the hard things I'm having to learn is decision-making and planning. Those are 2 things I don't like doing at all, but I have to do even more when I have travels. What I'm trying to figure out is how to afford travelling more internationally -- I've seen very little of the world outside of the USA. Steve, the "stealth conference" was written tongue-in-cheek, playing off the name of Rick Warren's conference. As for why little is revealed via blogging about invite-only pastors meetings -- that has to do both with those pastors' perspectives and/or convictions about blogging, and with the sponsoring organizations' strategy for public communications. My sense is this: very very few churches, pastors, and/or Christian organizations are comfortable enough with the open source world of transparent + global + instant + permanent communications to let it all hang out. And, to be fair, there may be unintended impact that none of us has yet to anticipate when we communicate so openly, quickly, and permanently. Tom, thanks for your kind words.

Could you be more specific? What was at risk?

The disclosure question I one I keep asking myself. Between Twitter and Facebook and blogging, how much is too much and how much is not enough. And I don't think I have any Asian heritage, but I could've sworn I've heard that voice before... Thanks, DJ! I look forward to hearing the official “findings”.
