[deva]

hi people,

deva from portland here. been involved with indymedia work for about  
6 years. in that time i've done some of just about everything, from  
producing videos, writing, tech work, web-design, photography, audio  
and been much involved with the choices and direction of pdx imc  
during that time.

am an advocate for indymedia to be an all-volunteer network and  
strongly opposed to people being paid within indymedia.

i apologize for having no facility with spanish

deva
