[New-imc] Proposed Nepal IMC

hey, relax everyone,
   i think there was a bit of confusion: dri is someone helping out on
new-imc and not someone from the Nepal group, so the request to
"provide disclosure" does not apply to dri, it applies to stephen
mikesell, who is the single person (AFAIK) who so far represents Nepal
expats and Nepal solidarity people.  

so far, AFAIK, we have no idea if any locals are involved, or how
they are going to have input and output from a Nepal IMC run from
US based supporters.

i don't know if gekked was confused, or if he simply didn't realise
the ambiguity in his message.

i was hoping to stay out of this one, but since i think it's easier
to have imc's start out right than try to repair them later, i guess
i might as well post some comments.

ok, see my next message.

BTW, there exists a mailing list

http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/listinfo/imc-nepal/

and to me it makes sense that those people who are willing to
make practical suggestions (it's clearly going to require a lot
of work) and who feel they are at little risk of being killed
or abducted in Nepal post their comments (or at least copies)
to the imc-nepal at lists.indymedia.org list.

more soon
