															Jaap de Jonge, Management Consultant, Netherlands
Like with any big issue, if you organize and combine the individual forces and people you can achieve more than on your own. So I say: allies.

It probably makes sense to try to preserve the informal strengths of communities while you are doing this. But I would not call organization a rival of a community.
