Sure.
In the interests of making the Sheffield IMC position more clear, I'll reiterate.
Sheffield IMC fully supports the agreements made at the last network meeting, and will still work towards the resolutions made there.
Sheffield IMC would like as an interim measure to add develop some further features on Mir.
This is because
* the large mobilisation in Sheffield 11-13 March
* current levels of activism/grassroots activity in Sheffield
* Whatever else I wrote in the previous email.

Yes, please discuss this within your collectives.

Sheffield IMC agrees completely with this statement.
Sheffield IMC is organising locally
Sheffield IMC has chosen the Mir UK platform
Sheffield IMC wishes to make some developments on the mir platform to better facilitate its community at this time.
