[imc-scotland-discussion] post G8 articles for INC

Hi All

The current topical discussion seemed like an appropriate time to ask if 
Indymedia would like to send some representation to the conference being 
held by G8Alternatives on Sunday the 27th of November.

One of the sessions is supposed to focus on feedback from the G8 
monbilisations and thoughts on the way forward - with contributions from a 
range of social movements. This will include Alex Trocchi who wrote the 
thought provoking puiece you were just discussing and hopefully 
contributions from MPH, G8A, the Clowns etc.
(Intention is to hold "an open session for all social movements,activist 
groups,autonomous networks, trades unions and NGOs to report back on the 
G8,activities since the G8 and plans for the future. A constructive 
discussion and debate as to recent events, ideology and values, tactics and 
methods and plans for the future.")

We would be delighted to add Indymedia to the list if you so wished. Whether 
or not you do, you would of course be welcome to attend the conference 
anyway.
Please feel free to pass this mail and my contact to anyone that you think 
might be interested.

Best wishes
Gordon Asher
