World Social Forum technology & web organizing group - english

PLEASE CIRCULATE WIDELY

Since the successful and important IC meeting in Rabat this past May,  
the World Social Forum Communications Committee has asked that working  
groups begin forming. There are approximately 8 demarcations within  
Com Com, but tasks and scope are obviously overlapping. There is none  
such working group with more relevance to the entire WSF process than  
the Technology working group, one of the 8 subsets of Com Com, which  
itself is a subset of the IC.

For many years, this work has been done by many of you that are still  
on the lists. Once again, we're asking for your dedication and  
participation to address some immediate technology needs, form larger  
more policy-based processes, and define long-term goals with specific  
WSF events in mind.

As of immediately, the working group will begin its own set of regular  
meetings, tangential to the Com Com weekly chats, use its own tools to  
organize and formulate its own strategies for growing membership.

Our next meeting is scheduled for MONDAY JULY 6, 14h UTC to 16h UTC
We connect via IRC chat through irc.oftc.net channel #wsf. Directions  
for connection are on the webteam-wiki (URL below).

Please join us for our first meeting online MONDAY 6 July 2009, 14:00  
UTC - 16:00 UTC. We plan to follow the agenda below:

1. Introductions
2. Working group regular meetings
    a. frequency
    b. method
3. Organizing tools
4. Scope of work
5. Growing participation, organizational accountability

It may be that we cannot address all of these general topics in one  
meeting. It may also be that everyone has his or her items to add to  
this agenda, so please feel free to modify this before we begin our  
meeting. An ersatz page for our agendas and notes can be found here:

All participants are expected to act as representatives of  
organizations within global social movements for the sake of  
accountability. However, please send out this call to participation to  
anyone that you think would be interested in organizing with us.
