These two sites, which are linked have an interesting idea, but I wanted to see if any of you knew about them being affiliated with OWS:
The media is running with this as having been approved by the Saturday GA, which NYCGA minutes suggest it was NOT:

OWS Media team should work on rebutting this ASAP before this guy's pet project gets any more traction as a legitimate OWS-endorsed list of demands.
OWS isn't really controlled by any one group. You kinda get affiliated with us by affiliating with us, if you know what I mean. We even have some Tea Partiers who joined the movement so...
I think the only time someone isn't part of the movement is if they don't want to be or they're just there to cause trouble.
That being said, of course, nobody has a right no publish "official" demands on the movement-as-a-whole's behalf.
Yes, I believe those two sites are officially affiliated with OWS. I'm not 100% sure, but I think so. Anybody?
Yes. Send more money.
