Story Plan
All right, I can get behind that. But why do you need to hold a summit to do that? Can just post within the current resources. I don't see the need to try and get every FC possible to go along with this. Just "Yo we're at this spot in our FC's story and we want to collaborate with some other FCs" on this forum or in other resources.
The goal for this is laudable - I just don't see why you need to hold a summit for it.
Settle Issues
Again, why can't you use current resources to do that? PF's been used for ALL sorts of unrelated party finding things and Making Connections could easily serve for that purpose. I wouldn't even consider building an airship being part of Settling Issues and more part of Fostering Cooperation. And why limit these to only FCs like you're doing by proposing it at that summit anyway? To me that makes no sense at all.
Just the fact that there's Issues to Settle to me seems fishy as all hell when you could just remove that talking point (to be fair, all talking points but Fostering Cooperation because they pretty much mean the same thing with your definitions).
To me, it just sounds like you're trying too hard to find problems where there aren't many to justify the position.
Foster Cooperation
Why not just rename this Sharing Resources because that's the example you give out - If help isn't to come from just resources, that's touched by your other points anyway.
Larger Activities
Dismissing other people's concerns by saying it's just a optimist/pessimist debate is pretty much the worst thing to happen to this discussion.
Just on a functionality standpoint - you're already discussing it in your first point. Why repeat yourself? A lot of these could be rolled together and explained better because they are essentially the same thing.

Overall I just don't see it as necessary in the way it's currently being made, but as I said on page 3, w/e. This'll happen whether I'm there or not, and there's absolutely no way I would even get a voice on this. All I can pretty much do is hope that this doesn't fuck over my enjoyment of the RP community.
