Yes, for sure... we have a pretty strong support from different activist
groups in Budapest, and a few contributors from other cities, but there
should be a wider base across Hungary.

Yes, actually I wrote a perl script for this, only I didn't set it to run
automatically... I'll put it into cron soon. The cities are updated now.

Yes, we have them about every two weeks - the calendar is a recent addition,
and we've just started using it, but it will be publicized there, too. Until
now, we just used the mailing list.

Bart pointed it out that we don't have an editorial policy yet. We don't
have one written down, and we'll try to prepare something on the next
meeting. So far we only had two incidents in about half a year (a right-wing
political party posted to the newswire) - but it never hurts to have some
agreement in place.
