heya dave,

its been a while - how you dong? me - im good. am in argentina, but
heading to euroland soon, to see what trouble i can make...

hey .- I am currently creating a website for a new autonomous sex
workers organision in Europe (more information below), and am looking
for a host for their website. It is not a rich organisation, like most
other autonomous workers projects, and we are looking for a service
that can provide free web hosting for the time being. The projects
site is not big - less than 20 pages - and will be static - no php,
databases, etc. whatcha reckon? is there space on axxs?

many thanks,
nico

Project Information // from the project organisers

x:talk - cross talk

We are currently in the process of organising a project that involves
the development, co-ordination and delivery of non-commercial / free
English classes for workers in the sex industry in London. The project
is named x:talk English classes. x:talk aims to create an open and
critical space to collectively organise and empower workers in the sex
industry and to encourage and support critical interventions into
discourses about gender, labour, migration and human rights. The
project is a conscious effort to make contact with migrant sex workers
communities, offer a practical and needed service and ultimately
attempt to build political alliances and strengthen migrant sex worker
networks.

The project has been endorsed by the International Union of Sex
Workers (GMB UK). The IUSW is a sex worker organisation for sex
workers' civil, legal and workers rights. In 2002 the IUSW became a
recognised branch of the GMB. The GMB - Britian's third largest union
- recognises sex work as a valid form of labour and offers union
membership to all who work in the sex industry, whether as
prostitutes, dancers, film models or actors or in associated
occupations (eg working in an adult video shop).
