| 2 | Jamie's Proposal: |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Date for membership meeting: Saturday, October 17 |
| 5 | |
| 6 | Overview: The meeting will be divided into two parts: |
| 7 | |
| 8 | * a day long face to face session happening on both Mexico City and New |
| 9 | York city focused on workshops and discussion |
| 10 | |
| 11 | * a two week online process for decision making |
| 12 | |
| 13 | The day long sessions will happen simultaneously in both New York and |
| 14 | Mexico City. They will begin with more technically-focused trainings and |
| 15 | workshops (e.g. how to use MF/PL email securely, etc) and will end with |
| 16 | more movement-focused sessions (e.g. MF/PL's role in the social forum, |
| 17 | what kind of technology should the movement focus on?). In addition, we |
| 18 | would have a workshop on how to participate in the online process, which |
| 19 | could be repeated - both at the beginning and at the end. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | We will do only one session at a time. For the movement focused |
| 22 | sessions, we will have a brief sharing period at the end for the NYC and |
| 23 | Mexico participants to exchange their summaries of the discussions. The |
| 24 | day could end with a cultural performance in each location. |
| 25 | |
| 26 | The online process would be the official voting mechanism where people |
| 27 | both elect leadership committee members and identify the priorities for |
| 28 | the organization for the coming year. |
