I'm willing to help get independent tech like Oscailt running.
I'll not use the UK software (Mir), because it falls into
the Java Trap and won't take news from groups' own sites.
Indymedia should be making news simpler for activists,
not requiring extra work of them.

The larger problem is to get local groups on the ground producing
content which gets fed to the UK site. I'm willing to help any
groups in Norfolk, South Holland or Fenland set up web sites or
start producing news feeds (technically, RDF Site Summary).

Hope that's interesting,
