Clark burns Grassroots

I've been following the evolution of Deanspace, the open source development effort to create online tools for the Howard Dean campaign. Now comes word (via Doc Searls) that Wesley Clark's campaign is dismantling the effort that helped draft him in the first place. Clueless.

Daily Kos: Tensions between Draft Clark factions erupt into open

TAP: Web Feature: Fan Friction. by Garance Franke-Ruta. September 25, 2003.

Two pro-Clark sites, ClarkRecruits.com and DigitalClark.com, have already been shut down, and a third, DraftWesleyClark.com, is slated to be disbanded within the month, according to its founder. ClarkRecruits.com had helped would-be volunteers link up with other Clark supporters in their areas; now volunteers have to fill out a form on the candidate's official site (Clark04.com) and wait for the main campaign to figure out what to do with them. And on Saturday, DigitalClark.com was shut down at the behest of the Clark campaign.
