Are there currently any barriers preventing volunteerism?
Core is only one aspect of the content issue, most of what gets written here is just hot air.
I don’t think IDSA content should be left to those volunteers with the gift-of-gab. (myself included)
I think the education conference is different in that $$ is replaced with prestige as the motivating factor (someone has a better methodology in education - it may get published, not so in the mainstream).
bottom line - We are not going to give away any competitive advantages in the name of providing content. It’s the major complaint of IDSA and DMI. If you want the expertise, it’s going to cost more than a membership fee.
