Discovering a tool takes time and practice to understand «the services it can provide».
Discovering the «howto use those services to suit our needs» takes also time and practice.
Until now Loomio fails in it's objective to create a satisfactory tool for decision. The practice is long boring blabla about one document. There are no way to improve the original proposition in a session (thread). Maybe there is a reason?
By the way ... Belgian Pirates had never used the public discussion of Mediawiki. I think the tool should be mobilized.

Jumping to conclusion after just one week of serious activity is prematurate imho. Can't we collect more data before we claim something has failed?

@patrickinstalle could you please move this thread into varia? By creating many subgroups we affect the lisibility.

Varia is about decision. The aim here is not took a decision.

It seems to be a good tool, but still confused about the proposal window up right.
Used normally to start a new thread or to finalise and voting a thread?

Loomio is just about making decisions.... if we gone us loomio also for other things it will be saturated very fast. If everyone is gone start groups .... in a very short time a mother will not find his child anymore...
We have facebook(s),Wiki's, Website.... pads... Slack ..... next to meetings, labs etc....
Getting organised...? I think i am gone join the maffia ;-)

Tadaaam ... the thread and the description have been modified.
Because «Why Loomio fails and how to improve.» as the first thread of of Non decision topics sounds not encouraging. :sweat_smile:

I really do agree about WIKI and its DISCUSSION wich are totaly public and with the fact that all the history is kept, comparable and restorable.
And it is not «sexy» BUT it is an amaizing under exploited tool.
loomio
This wrong feeling is probably because «we» started to use it «after» everything was decided for the next GA.
But Loomio probably works and I truely believe that ANY OTHER tool will face the same problem : without experience and discussions about its usage.
It is «sexy» AND it is an amizing under exploited tool.
