hi all,

there is something in this i don't understand: the focus on the lesbian, 
gay, bi- and trans- sexual liberation process. don't get me wrong - i think 
these are important issues for people with anti-authoritarian views and i'm 
myself very interested in them not being overidden by society's dominant 
structures. but is this addressed everytime in the imc network when there 
are requests for funds or new groups to be approved? why does it play such 
a relatively important role in the funding request from ambazonia/nigeria?

i have to admit that i'm not sure but i think that these issues don't have 
a specific place in the german imc's mission statement and other texts we 
sent when we were applying to be an imc. we were never asked (i think - 
this was close to two years ago).

is it a common procedure to ask imc's-to-be for their views on specific 
questions now? i have to say that i find that a bit strange. i didn't 
follow the new imc process evolution for a while now. how many statements 
on specific subjects are being asked for? and which?
