[turlututu]

Hey Dagny,
If you didn't notice, the proposal to use the url 
"belgium.indymedia.org" didn't changed since the first proposal. The 6 
local collectives are clear on that since months. We think 6 collectives 
have more right to use that url than only one who is mainly based at 
Brussels. It seems even logical in indymedia where we've got the concept 
of share and exchanges (what we call a network). If i allow myself to 
say "we", it's because this is the common idea after long discussions 
and ag on this matter (where you were invited to take part since one 
year...)

When you say "But don't try to be the centre of the world if you are 
not!". I totally agree with you and that's why indy.be can't do it by 
speaking in the name of other imc's in Belgium. Those imc's who would 
like to set up a wonderful tool of cooperation between the collectives. 
Personally, i'm frightened when indy.be speaks about the syndication 
site like a "technical solution", it's really a simplistic and erroneous 
idea. If you followed and if you wanted to take part, maybe you would be 
more informed about it. The syndication is more than that. It's a site 
which will allow in the futur a common dynamic and outreach for local 
collectives. It's also the base for cooporations which will help and 
encourage a strong participation of indymedia in Belgium.

No need to say that indy.be is able to do the same thing with "get 
basic", in less than 2 years, more 16 active persons left indy.be 
because the reasons you know as well as me. So i'm pretty septic about 
this so ambitious project. You can call it "media circus", "get basic", 
or even "banana", it doesn't change the reality of the situation and it 
doesn't give more sense to its gravity.

If you want more information about what's exactly the syndication site 
project, you're of course welcome.
