[Imc-cymru] Wales United Kollective?

[Genny Bove]

Thanks for that, Ilyan.

I would be really happy to see an independent indycymru and a social 
forum cymru news forum flourish.  If either or both of those are warm 
and welcoming places where people want to be, then I'm sure they will.

My interest, and where I want to put my energy at the moment, is in 
establishing a place on indymedia uk which can be used by people who 
want to use it; people who don't like it wouldn't need to join in.  All 
I'm trying to find out is whether anyone else is interested in this 
idea.  If other people wish to do other things, that's fine with me.

Best wishes

Genny
