Piratelab to one entire day every 2 months: "We are in the urgence of taking time"

J Josse Public Seen by 24

As there is less people on the piratelabs because of transport vs time spent, we (piratelab 29th of July) thought it to be a good idea to change the formula of the Piratelab to one day every 2 months instead of half a day every month, and we put the next Piratelab on the 30th of September in Gembloux from 10 am.

ok that sometimes there were more participants, but what matters to me is the variety of crews. I am afraid there we most of the time have the same faces, don't you think?

I agree, but is this only related to Pirate Labs ? Or is this happening in the whole Pirate Party ? For instance, I don't have any idea of the activity of other crews (see https://www.loomio.org/d/SAW3EFV2/current-status-of-the-crews on the same topic ')

So... what do we do now ? As I said, I would like to keep the lab of August. As we don't reach a consensus on the decision of doing a mega-lab every 2 months, I propose (once again, sorry for that ') to discuss further about this idea during the lab of August. What do you think about that ?

Let me know quite quickly please, because we will have to book the venue in Gembloux if we go for that solution :)

I could come in August and we can work on stuff, but then we need to do September in Mechelen again.

I launched a poll on the Facebook group, to have some feedback from people who usually don't come, here are some results already, I'll keep you updated in the next days if more results come in (number between parenthesis = number of people who answered that)

_I don’t go to the Pirate Labs because… _

  • I am a pirate friend, but have many other activities. I would love Pirate Labs about dedicated topics. Would contribute in some. (10)
  • I can’t go because it’s too remote/I have no time (6)
  • I go to the Labs but rarely. (5)
  • I dedicate my time locally (2)
  • I don’t see why I would go (1)
  • I don’t know what it is (0)
  • I don’t know when it is (0)

The person who suggested the "dedicated Labs" answer commented : "Hi, as I already added as an option: I believe in dedicated pirate labs on dedicated topics where pirates and external experts (pirate friendly) would exchange views. E.g "is being a pirate in belgium different / worse / easier in Belgium than in the original pirate countries like Germany and Sweden" or "marketing and communication for the municipal elections" or "pirates and the sharing economy", ....etc"
