Hmm, as a long(ish) time supporter and ex-mod of my local group it all seems a bit messy. At least the Guardian article seems to think that.

Actually it seems OK, What do you need for this kind of thing? An email list, a set of workable rules, some volunteer mods lots of members - there is little need for a management structure (and no need for power crazed Americans, not that I’m saying they are!).

Freecycle is dead, long live the freecycle?
