I agree ES, these are the questions..

"Who are we? Are we passive, or militant? Do we seek to affect change through gentle persuasion or by taking confrontational action when necessary? Are we limited by geography or period."

But we'll never quite agree initially, nor indeed will we fully understand the implications or how it will develop. For that reason I favour a broad brush "catch-all" vehicle from which we can conduct any campaign or interest that arises or that happens to interest us. We can't sustain something that covers everything, and why should we try? Let's have no bureaucracy or rules, they can come later, if they must, and as they're needed. Just a respectable "platform" to speak from. "I'm from TMA and we think that..." just doesn't work, but this might.

So. let's just set up an online heritage preservation voice, and see how it develops. Organic growth is bound to be the best way to go.
