[Imc-africa] tremendous praise/please keep using this list

[Jay]

Hi,

I've been away from e-mail for several days so I just caught up on 
many imc-africa messages.  Reading all these things about the 
organizing that's happening continues to inspire me.  I think this 
working group has done a tremendous job so far, organizing over the 
internet non-hierarchically, transparently, multi-lingually and 
enthusiastically to bring together such positive people and energy 
from around the world.  The next few weeks are going to be intense, 
with many successes to come (and maybe even some 
failures).   Whatever happens, I think so far this project has been a 
positive example of the continuing potential and power of this kind 
of independent media network.

Now that people are arriving from around the world to Kenya I'd like 
to encourage those who are "on the ground" to keep communicating 
through this e-mail list, the wiki pages and kenya.indymedia.org with 
those of us who can't be there in body.  There is not too much most 
of us can do that can't be done better in face to face meetings, but 
I'd really love to feel a day-to-day part of what's taking place.

With little practical to offer at this moment other than tremendous praise,
Jay
