Hi there,

I've invited people for the Open Rights Group to do a workshop at the 
HacktionLab.
I'm feeding back my reply as it's got some interesting links in it.
nice one

We have a open format for this event, so we can fit you in anytime on 
the Saturday, which is the best day for such a session. Just let me know 
when a good time is.

What did you think of the ideas of doing a session about - 
'communicating our ideas to the general public / media'? I think this is 
an area where ORG is strong and you could share some tips.

There may also be a good scope for informally mapping specialist 
communities and thinking of possible plans for working with them to 
catalyse digital rights campaigning. This is suggested in this blog post 
about ORGcon - http://thingsarebootwontfix.com/fan-fiction-continuation
It addresses moving beyond technology enthusiasts into other areas, I 
think we are trying to continue doing that into the grassroots 
campaigning community with TTFA project.

We are into the learning resources side of things as well, so that might 
be interesting for you guys too.

Also, here's some feedback that I found for  ORGcon and the Hacktivism 
session.
