[OccupySheffield] National Communications

[Mark Barrett]

Dear UK / Ireland Occupiers

About the Sheffield national gathering, an idea for agenda: don't we need
to start up regular national, open and accessible, on-line voice meeting ?

Skype is ok but it requires pre-registration / usernames etc. We could use
the 15M Mumble server which is used (without the need for prior
registration) every Sunday (internationally).
Or maybe Webinar.  Or, this very promising looking one is
http://bigbluebutton.org/

Basically all / any of these would be great to try out. Personally I'd go
for Big Blue Button as no-one else is using it yet although there's been
lots of interest in it - so would be great to get it mastered! Maybe just
pick a day for weekly meetings ( like they do in the US - their national
Interoccupy meetings, which are still a work in progress are on Mondays)
and then work out the technicalities on the way?

*PS Let's Subvert the Diamond Jubilee Year!*
"The concept of debt cancellation and celebration is linked to the Old
Testament concept of Jubilee, which meant that every 50 years, people sold
into slavery, or land sold due to bankruptcy, were redeemed".
