Hi

As several of our members are afk until Tuesday it is not possible to give
you a collective response before we meet on Tuesday night.

It is disputed that the Bradford agreement means that Mayday must move the
uk site to a temporary non-Indymedia domain on May 1st.I know I would not
have agreed to such a provision.

As bethemedia are meeting tomorrow night, perhaps you could draft a
statement explaining why you believe that it is imperative that the uk
open newswire is moved to a non-Indymedia domain on May 1st, so that we
can consider the matter collectively before making our response.

Thanks
