STRATEGY WEEK

The recent correspondence and threats from the Cathedral have brought our
future into focus, and it was decided this evening at GA that an extended
discussion of the future of Occupy Sheffield would be a good idea. Given
that we can't get everyone to the same meeting as people have outside
commitments, and that this will be a very wide-ranging and extended
conversation, we decided that it would be best to have this discussion over
a period of a week, as part of the general assemblies.

For the next week, strategy will be at the start of every GA agenda. There
is no defined end date for this conversation, as we may come to a quick
consensus, or it may take a long time to thrash out what we want to
achieve. At the start of every meeting, someone will relay the state of the
conversation from the end of the previous meeting, and at the end, someone
will be nominated to do the same for the following meeting.

If you would like to influence the future of Occupy Sheffield, and have a
say in where we go from here, then please make a special effort to come to
general assemblies over the next week.

For clarity, although this decision was prompted by the most recent letter
from the Cathedral, the feeling at tonight's GA was that we need to discuss
this anyway.

As always, we invite the Cathedral, other faith groups, charities, trades
unions and individuals to join us in the world's biggest think tank, to
work out what the future should look like, and how we get there, together.

In solidarity, Occupy Sheffield.
