imc-commwork would be the place
but i can only regret you are doing double work

we already discussed at length there the method to gather imc infos and the fact
that it's up to them to decide whther to use indivisuals email, mailing list or
other form of communication as contact

but the work you have done is valuable
i would suggest you tell all this people to update their info in contactdb and
go on in the effort to have a central resource to facilitate communication on
global level of indymedia network

how do you see that ?
