If somebody needs hints I'm happy to share (of course ;-) ) our experience.

Yes, it's cumbersome. And it is depressing most of the time, because 
you'll have the feeling you won't make it most of the time.

Definitely. I can tell you it's pretty cold out there standing in the 
pedestrian zone a whole afternoon. But you'll meet a lot of nice people.

If you are well-prepared, have enough pirates to support you, and are 
willing to sustain the effort over many weeks. Without knowing the exact 
numbers I estimate that we had 20-50 active collectors and 3-4 months 
for around 1500 signatures (we needed 1000, but went for safety as a 
good portion of them were considered invalid by the authorities, e.g. 
signatory was not allowed to vote).
