Pirate Lab in Mons - September 26th, 2015
On Saturday September 26th, 2015 at Café Europa, Mons
Open at 12am, Lab starts at 1pm.
Topics
- 1) General Assembly
- 2) Manifesto
- 3) Symposium
Report
1) GENERAL ASSEMBLY:
end of January/mid February in Gent crew Gent is looking for a place to do it (Tuin of Eden) topics and content: via Loomio 'Pirate Open Assembly'
- membership administration and welcoming
- IT and infrastructure: who is maintaining the site? what about mailing lists?
- general internal workings: structures and how they do relate
2) MANIFESTO
difference between program and manifesto:
- manifesto offers a vision, a dream
- program offers details
three strategies: * 1- group/common manifesto = one text for all of us:
- better for the political party
- link with tech pirates?
- good for the outer world, to convince people who don't know the pirates yet
- singular, clear, convincing
- difficult to make one common text, process will be messy
- we have to find a way to provide a text like that
- Toon and Damiens are working on a singular text: working on technical solution for 'how can we write that manifesto and make it democratically sustained (with ammendments and way to support them) > will take time!!
- Vincent: how to merge different texts > http://emerge.shoutwiki.com
* 2- compilation of individual manifesto's:
- better for the movement
- link with social/relational pirates?
- a bit messy, not consistent for the outer world
- good for the internal group: everyone gives input
- also possible for groups and crews to write their own manifesto
- put all the manifesto's in a word cloud > see which topics are huge, and which ones are small
* 3- combination of both: the are compatible
- make sure that both groups are represented (relational and tech)
- there is a spectrum with black and white, but also grey: there is much more than social pirates and tech pirates (simplification), we have to focus on the common
- both approaches can be combined: we can start with the individual manifesto's, and keep working on the tool for the central one
- make a questionnary as a guidline for writing: why are you a pirate?
TO DO LIST !!!!!
- 1- motivate people to write an individual manifesto (wait a little bit for the questionnary)
- 2- make a questionnary: gather input for the common manifesto (Toon, Danny, Pascal, Jonas, Josse, Tim) > Toon is taking initiative on the Manifesto Working Group on Facebook
- 3- tool to make a common manifesto, we have the input already from the questionnary (Toon and Damiens)
3) SYMPOSIUM
