I don't think anybody blames you for IMC-Iran.

It's hard to organize an IMC in a country where membership in such an
organization can lead to your disappearance, wether or not you live in
the country.

It's up to those organizing the IMC to get it organized, it's been
happening but slowly (as it probobally should be).  They're a long way
off from becoming a full IMC, and it's of no fault to anyone at new-imc,
especially you who IMHO has been doing a good job supporting them.

I've already been helping them in an at-arms-length manner, that is, not
in a way that involves myself to a point where my continued assistance
is a requirment for the IMC.  *I* don't want to disappear, tho because I
travel all over the east coast and don't really have any permanent home
I'm probobally at the least risk of everyone here.

I'll continue to do so, to the extent that those working within Iran are
interested in working.  Advice, guidance, and training only.  It can't
be up to any of us to organize the IMC for them, to get more people
involved and figure out how to have open meetings without risking the
safety of the existing members.  

If you feel you need a break from new-imc you should take it, but I'd
hate to see you leave because you feel others in the group don't think
you're doing a good job.  IMC-Iran is a difficult situation for everyone
and as far as I'm concerned you've done an outstanding job so far.
