[Imc-cymru] the next step...

This was all discussed months ago.  I take it everyone has read the 
archives.  Jim Killock was ready to quickly make a welsh IMC subservient 
to UK censorship.  He may even still be in a position to make that 
happen tomorrow.   It was OKed by me so long as it did not use the 
Indycymru name. 

I recommend everyone to register for the uk features list so you can see 
just how much censorship there is, and how ridiculous it sometimes is.

If the resubmission of the March Indycymru submission goes through, 
Indycymru will have to remake the site and get a new server.  No point 
in bothering setting up an  new Indycymru system if  the Portuguese IMC 
principle and New York IMC registration are now unacceptable.

 I have not heard why Indycymru  had to stop being with the original 
server, perhaps there was arm twisting, but an uncensored site like 
Indycymru should not be intimately tangled up with the livelihood of  a 
participant.   It must be an arms length arrangement.

People might like to consider the implications of the ineffectiveness of 
the two million march at stopping the war, in particular the total lack 
of effective follow up when the war started.   You might not see any 
parallel with the editorial guidelines that control so many Indymedias. 
  The KGBetc are laughing all the way to their fat pensions.   They 
appear to even have the leadership of the SWP sewn up. 

There is a lesson to be learned from all this. 

There is also something in the admin that I have sent a rude Religious 
answer to, and may get around to passing for this list.
I have not had time to look properly into Forum from Aber yet.

Regards
Ilyan   not quite retired as a plebs' spy.   can you find "Evidence of a 
Criminal Conspiracy against Democracy in the UK"?    It used to be on 
Indycymru, as was "Criteria...."
