[New-imc] Add to cities list

[boud]

hi rick and bill, 
   Sorry about the confusion. 

Your initial request was made here:

http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/public/new-imc/2002-December/004369.html

and it seems that noone replied - our apologies.

i think arc has volunteered to help guide you through the process - and
some face-to-face meetings with IMC Ithaca would definitely be good!

Since i argued against giving the DNS hyderabad.indymedia.org  since
there were alternative urgent solutions which existed, it would be
inconsistent - and sound like preference for rich countries - if 
we kept binghamton.indymedia.org  

Maybe a fair alternative would be something like

binghamton.pending.indymedia.org

Hmmm. 
Idea:

dns people: Is it technically easy to make a subdomain like

pending.indymedia.org

so that there could be  binghamton.pending.indymedia.org,
zimbabwe.pending.indymedia.org,  hyderabad.pending.indymedia.org, ...

until they get through the process?

new-imc people: Would this be a big enough change that we ought
to ask  imc-communication, imc-process  before proceeding?

i wonder if this would respond to those people who think a new 
group needs to get a web site up and running quickly?

Maybe this is a bad idea, but i just threw it up for reflection...
