> We have access to two, possibly three, servers. All being run and
maintained by people interested/involved in the imc project and other
alternative media projects. We also already have two imc tech volunteers who
want to work on getting the site up an running soon. We weren\'t sure about
bandwidth at our last meeting, so we will have to get back to you on that
one.

> outreach:
> We are still in the begining stages of organizing. Thus far we have done
outreach at local coffee shops. At our last meeting we discussed attending
community organization meetings and monthly open-mics to talk about starting
an imc.
>
> introductory_statement:
> There is virtually no coverage of important community events. For example,
last week a community organized campaign to stop toxic air pollution began a
week long study of the toxins released into \'fenceline\' neighborhoods by
chemical corporations, with the help of Greenpeace.You would think that with
the introduction of such an internationally know environmental group the
local media would have atleast covered it. But they chose to ignore it like
they have the rest of their campaign. So we would like to focus a lot on
this capaign as an IMC. We also see the IMC network as an important
networking tool for local activists. As of now we have no place to make
announcements about events taking place in our community. With the
open-publishing newswire we could do that. Since we are so isolated
geographically we would also like to have a place that activists outside of
Louisville could check out and see what\'s going on.
