A PROPOSAL TO FORMALLY ADOPT "LOOMIO" FOR COLLECTIVE DECISION MAKING
__________
In order to stir the embers of the now dampened movement, administrators of the OccupyMN Collective Network would like to propose the use of Loomio to help continue the movement along its proper path.
Loomio is a decision-making software to assist groups with collaborative decision-making processes. It is a free software web application.
Loomio implements occupy hand-signals but allows groups to interpret these as they wish. Users initiate discussions and put up proposals. As discussions progress the group receives feedback on a proposal through an up-datable pie chart.
Loomio fits in line with our quest to utilize both traditional methods of life (democracy) with the technological advances of today (direct, liquid e-democracy).
This proposal would allow for our decentralized [now global] collective to come together once again to make the broad decisions needed to continue forward as a movement.
This technology also has the ability to allow any projects or committee initiatives to be incorporated within our group as a sub-group of our collective, allowing for such initiatives to be led independently of the entire collective.
Feel free to navigate around the OccupyMN "Loomio Group" and familiarize yourself with the features.

PARTICIPATE IN DIRECT DEMOCRACY AND STATE YOUR OPINION HERE:

*This proposal will close on May 9th, 2015 - be certain to state your opinions prior to this date.
