So just one - can anyone tell me what was the edemocracy

Oh yeah, just remembered the other - anyone got any suggestions
for web based collaborative event timetabling? Am thinking using
an etherpad, possibly even <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://ethercalc.org">https://ethercalc.org</a> (although this
wouldn't be easy for non-spreadsheet users) but wondering if any
ones got any other solutions (ease of use important as the event
isn't aimed at techy types.<br>

Hi there,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My name is Peter Dreisiger and I'll be visiting London from
Perth (Australia) between the 22nd of July to the 2nd of August
and I guess I was wondering if HacktionLab had any meetings (or
meet-ups) planned during that period, or if it'd otherwise be
possible to catch up with a few members. While I currently live
in Australia, I am planning to move to the UK in the next year,
and this group (as well as the LARC) seems like something I'd
like to get involved with.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Here, I've been involved in the refugee rights campaign — by
way of on-the-ground organising, as well as developing and
deploying field-based tech — but I'm also increasingly moving
towards more general and/or strategic technology that can be
used across campaigns and types of groups; I've also been trying
to establish something of a technology for activists collective
here to cover not just in-the-field tech but, say, computer
security and evidence gathering tools and practical
workshops/drop-in clinics; unfortunately, that's not gotten off
the ground yet. (A very rough and out of date list of some of
the projects I'm working on [but have not necessarily updated
the public documentation yet] can be seen at <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://interarma.org/doku.php?id=projects:start">https://interarma.org/doku.php?id=projects:start</a>.)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've also been involved with Perth's Hackerspace, <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://artifactory.org.au/">the
Artifactory</a>, for a few years, and I've been part of <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://theradlibrary.wordpress.com/">the Rad Library</a> (a
weekly, mobile activist/anarchist/social-change-themed library
in a park) since 2010 but the former, at least, seems to have
headed down the path of a 'makerspace' rather than some of the
more politically engaged hacker groups in other parts of the
world. (I did help to organise Perth's first #CryptoParty but
the take up of that project has been a bit slow too.)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Well, I'll leave it there, but it'd be great to hear back
from someone, be it just to get to know some people before I
move over to the UK, to find out a bit about how your group
formed and how well it's worked as a collective, or maybe even
to talk about some potential collaborations.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks in advance,</div>
<div><br>
