[Cc-webedit] interim section restructure

Interim structure looks fine - but we also discussed reverting back to
the old banner. I'm wondering if we should do both as a package.

I would suggest the old banner as was (and not reworded with Camp for
Climate Action) for the time being. Think it will be easier to manage.

Questionnaire...

I think we should send email to roughly this effect (below) to Process
to circulate. i think there shouldn't be too many questions, and they
should be quite general....


The Climate Camp website is being re-developed this summer. But that’s
only the beginning; over the next few months – and years - we want our
website to become an absolutely core part of how we communicate with
the wider public, and with each other.

But that will only happen if everyone involved with the camp helps us
to develop our website.

So we want every working group and neighbourhood to nominate a “web
spoke” – someone who’ll be able to feed in to the website group their
working group/neighbourhood’s views, but also – and crucially –
someone who’ll be able to go back to their groups and really encourage
them to grow and tend to their areas of the new website.

To start this process we’re sending out a few questions to every
working group and neighbourhood to find out what people really want
from the website. If each working group could get back to us with a
response to our questions (just one from each group/neighbourhood
please) , we’ll look at those and use them to develop our plans.

We can’t guarantee that everything you suggest will be included in the
site, and certainly not for the launch, but we will do our best to use
your answers to start the process of developing a website that
reflects the wishes of everyone in the movement.

If you could get your responses (a few sentences max on each question)
to us by 2 August as well as contact details for your spoke – that’d
be mighty grand.

1)	What do you think of the current website
a.	What do you like about it?
b.	What don’t you like about it?
2)	What do you think of your working group/neighbourhood’s section of
the website?
3)	How do you think your working group/neighbourhood’s section of the
site could be improved
4)	What do you think we should have on the homepage i.e news, next
event, big pictures?
5)	How do you think the Climate Camp website could be improved in the future?


Right then - gottogo to the grand workshops workshop.

But back on this this evening,
