I wasn't aware of this, which would definitely help.

There was one other issue which I forgot to mention -
other than the two of us regular Internet users, none
of the activists here speak or read English.  I will
look at the documents myself and see if translating
them would be straightforward, since I can't do it (I
can't write Tamil :) ) but others may be able to with
some help from me.  Again, the lack of English may
make indymedia less interesting, but perhaps that's
just my pessimist side coming out again.. 
  
I'll subscribe to the imc-india list soon.


Will be in touch, probably through the list
Shankar
