I'd like to add my voice to this. I applaud and embrace Shayne's 
proposal to honour the request by Mick Lambe. When indymedia editors and 
moderators become aware of material that is defamatory, libellous and 
clearly aimed at character assasination, we have a responsibility to 
remove it from our pages.

To whoever has technical and/or administrative access to do so, please 
act on this request; it will help to bring some peace and closure.

I feel that the character assasination campaign against Mick Lambe 
within our pages has gone on for much too long and by now the only thing 
it illustrates is our own - indymedia's - inability to grasp right from 
wrong. Let's take another step toward reconsiliation and for building 
new bridges of friendship.

Thanks,
