[Imc-africa] Update for Delegates for Dakar-Senegal Conference(20/12/03)

[bak]

Hey,

I'm a volunteer of Indymedia Switzerland, Geneva, and I would like to 
attend, share and help in some workshops at the Dakar conference.
I have some skills in site admin, featuring, imc organisation, summits, 
counter-summits, dispatching, irc, video, html, and would like to share 
it with other people there in some workshops.
About material, I can bring a video camera for workshops, and we will 
see with the indymedia switzerland collectif how to find more stuff. I 
will maybe bring a producing system if it's possible, mir (not shure). I 
can bring one or two ethernet cards for computers, 10 or so bootable CDs 
of dyne:bolic, a linux distribution that does not require an 
installation and allow multimedia tasks.

Cheers,

bak.
