Link to forum instead of mailing list

We don't have a process to ensure that emails to our internal list
(contact@coops.tech) are replied to in a timely manner/at all. At the
moment we appear to have 5 legitimate emails from the 13 March that
don't appear to have replies.

I hope that encouraging people to post to the forum will increase the
chance that they receive a reply.

I think there are further improvements we can make, by clarifying the
joining process for example, but this is a good enough start.

Each member of the network is a company that is owned and democratically run by it's workers (and, in some cases, customers). There are no private shareholders who take money out of the company and/or direct the company's activities. While many of the member co-operatives do not have completely flat structures -- many have boards, management committees, etc. -- they are all democratic workplaces and the members have the opportunity to appoint people to roles or change the structure of their organisations.
Governance of the network currently takes place through a rough consensus process using [Loomio][], [a wiki][wiki] and [a open email list][mailing-list], and all members are invited and encouraged to get involved. As the network develops, we will explore changes to this governance model together.
