[Imc-uk-features] Indymedia UK: process, content and other things

Hello

Cheers Shiar for your mail, for its content and its tone :-)

Anyhow, you end with:

True, to do a network meeting at the same time as a 'big' event is 
hopping for too much. But if there were enough imcistas at the CC for 
example, we could put an hour or so aside to maybe look at the agenda 
for the meeting, a bit like the meet up we had at the SchNEWS 
conference.

But anyway, the point is, shall we try to do the network meeting 
between late August (after the Climate Camp) and early September 
(before the No Border Camp)?

Assuming that we prefer weekends, we've got:

- August 24, 25, 26 (Bank holiday weekend): This may be a bit tricky as 
people may have plans for that weekend already. For example i know of a 
few imcistas that they'll be away then.
- September 1st and 2nd
- September 8th and 9th
- September 15th and 16th, although possible, again this one may be a 
bit tricky too because it is just a few days before the No Borders Camp 
starts, and i guess some imcistas will be busy setting up an access 
point at the camp.

Otherwise it could be done after the No Borders Camp if the first two 
weekends in September are not good, but then it should be done as soon 
as possible. Maybe the last weekend of September 29 and 30?

Is there any kollective that could get into organising this? I guess we 
could ask rampART again, but the London lot are already very busy with 
the Climate Camp first, then Dsei two weeks after, and then the 
Noborders Camp just after that. Not sure how much more time / energy 
london peeps could have for organising a network meeting on top.

Anyway, can we pick up a date soon?
