Pros:

  1. Relative low cost
  2. High speed sharing without much bureaucracy and structural
  3. Easily available in different languages

Cons:

1. For those want to control loss control

Jer: set the boundary with good rationale. In my humble opinion the whole church as public in control is better than a few whom claimed to be expert in control

2. security concern in some context

Jer: If sharing in general public is not prefer, at least that can be shared with limited audience. I fear that we were more transparency than we thought, to be secure is not to do something that you don't want other to know or to see.

3. technology is not available

Jer: Technology is not ready or not yet available for now, could be ready in the future nearer than we thought. Be ready for others will be ready sooner or later. Keep learning and being innovative applying skills, knowledge and attitudes for the good of man kinds especially for those are being marginalized and those are being considered as inferior by themselves or others. Technical literacy should be promoted.

very interesting set of ideas. I have started doing something similar on a limited scale relating to stock media for Bible videos etc. i.e. a place where people can go and share resources. (sign up at www.biblestockmedia.com) The structure of MAP seems at the moment too rigid to allow something like this. On bible stock media, users can find URLs and passwords for private online resources. Some users are readers, some writers and others manage the site. i.e. it's a wiki. It would not be difficult for a similar site to be set up for training resources. The issue of accreditation remains - this approach cold work as long as any accreditation processes involve an ability to demonstrate skills rather than a certificate which may or may not indicate competence.
