[Imc-wellington-organise] Volunteers?

[ksimpson at ihug.co.nz]

That's very encouraging. Aotearoa Indymedia is always on the
look-out for technical editors who can help run the site.
I'm copying this email to the Indymedia organising list and
someone will be in touch with you about what skills are
needed.
Thanks very much for your interest and hope to meet you in
due course.
Regards
Ken
for Wellington Indymedia
