[HacktionLab] Getting ready for Barncamp 2019 - help wanted

[naomi]

Hello Hacktivists

There is much enthusiasm for a 2019 Barncamp  - so we have decided to go
ahead!

Highbury Farm are happy to host it from the 19th to 24th of June. Save
the date!

We are going to need all hands on deck to make this happen, even more so
than usual as we have started rather late in the year.

As you all know Barncamp is a self-organised event, apart from outside
catering (sometimes) and (some) facilities kindly provided for us by
Highbury farm, it is pretty much a DIY event. So whatever you can
volunteer to do, either during the event or, even better, in advance,
will make a huge difference.

Please have a look at this wiki page
<https://hacktionlab.org/2019_Tasks> - is there anything you are
interested in helping with? Don't worry if no-one else has volunteered
for that thing yet, we are still at the stage of sorting out who wants
to do what, and hopefully working groups will start to form.

If you want to edit the wiki, email mark at aktivix.org to request an
account. Otherwise just post in this list about what you want to do, and
someone will add it.

We are committed to non-hierarchical, autonomous working so groups will
each take responsibility for their chosen task. Of course you are always
encouraged to ask for help and advice from people who have done similar
tasks in previous years though! That's how the magic happens. For
non-trivial decisions that affect the whole group we will decide by
consensus, which is a wonderful thing that you can read about here
<https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/seeds-for-change-consensus-decision-making>
if you are not already familiar. I'm hoping to get an online tool for
that up and running this week.

Off we go then! Any questions at all, please post to the list.

Love & chaos

Naomi
