Great discussion. I’ve been giving similar thought to the usefulness of Mac users groups. They used to be face-to-face meetings to both help understand and recommend products and services. I think you have hit on something re more lateral relationships. Broader governance mechanisms such as We Own It could feed this process. Mark Latham also put forward some interesting ideas in his paper We Want Our Co-ops Back http://votermedia.org/publications/WeWantOurCo-opsBack.pdf
