[Imc-aotearoa-ed] edit existing post

[Brian van Dam]

Dear David,
                        I'm sorry, but one of the key principles of 
Aotearoa Independent Media Centre is that we don't edit existing posts 
in any way other than as set out in the AIM Editorial Policy 
(http://www.indymedia.org.nz/edpolicy.php3).

This is to make it genuinely open publishing, without the volunteer 
editors imposing their own moral/ethical/political/etc judgements upon a 
posting. Also, there is the problem of the editors being unable to 
verify whether the person who e-mails us (you) is actually the person 
who made the post (your name is listed as author of the post, but under 
open publishing anyone could have written your name and address there).

If you accidentally typed in your address, and are being plagued with 
nuisance e-mails by readers of the post, please let us know and we will 
see if we can do something. Remember that you do not have to fill in you 
address, e-mail, and phone details - just if you want readers to be able 
to contact you about the posting.

Oh, and I couldn't find the word Cberactivist anywhere in the post or 
comments, or attached link.

Hope this is some explanation, if not some help.

Cheers,
                    Brian.
