[imc-tech-solidarity] otra destinacion para las computadoras

[evan]

I think we should get a confirmation from the brasilians first. We said 
that if there was not real progress in two weeks we'd cancel the brasil 
idea and move forward with others. Right now it's been 6 weeks since we 
made that agreement.

First off all we need confirmation them before we ship elsewhere.

If we ship the computers to Guatemala, i think we should ask that 50 of 
the computers we are sending be given to indymedia Chiapas for them to 
distribute to groups sympathetic to indymedia who they are working with 
in guatemala and possibly for them to bring to Chiapas. This is of 
course, if the Chiapas folks want them. They were supposed to get 
computers after cancun and due to my personal fuckup at the border we 
lost them. It seems that it would be a good way to use them, help some 
groups we want, and stop paying this insane $220 a month.

in solidarity,
evan
