[Cc-webedit] [climatecampprocess] text alert system for swoop

[Anna]

Wiggly hands to that. As far as i understand we are still awaiting confirmation from the land group that a swoop is feasible ? 

Until we have the word from them it seems unwise to actually start communicating with folk. However is a great idea to make sure we have the technology in place and a clear group of people who are responsible for making it work. This group needs to have a clear mandate from gathering/networking about what can and can't be said via this medium... afore we loose what little radical political messaging we have left ! 

Is there a swoop technology/comms group ?

Some concerns from me here,

we really need to discuss the swoop and how it happens as a whole group, here are all the swoop decisions that have been made so far:

-Immediately following the traditional closed group site take there will be a public swoop to the site.
This will be part of the narrative and pre-publicity advertising the convergence. This is subject to land
group concerns and capacity. CONSENSUS REACHED
-Camp will begin on Thursday 27th and to end on Wednesday the 2nd.This includes a day at each end
for week for the public to be involved in setup and tat down. CONSENSUS REACHED

as the site group is currently looking at practicalities of setting the site up in a day, and the land group are assessing swoop concerns and doability too, i am reticent to just go ahead and start up a text service, especially given some of the major mis messaging coming out of texts and twitter in the past.

by all means lay the groundwork, but as this is a part of our communication with the public, i'd be happier if it was agreed at a national gathering before empowering a small group to get on with it.

righty then, sorry to be critical, just trying to ensure we don't rush in headfirst without involving people in process first...
