[New-imc] Letter.

[A. Haiduk]

To all Imc,
Reply to recent posts by Dmitry Bondarenko, open letter:
 
Dear Dmitry,
you know, it's very strange that someone objects against creation of imc-belarus. It seems that the time of census finished so far...
 
I cannot understand what connection does your 'Linux' group (you are so proud of), have with imc-belarus?? If you like 'Linux' and still think that it is really alternative software it is your own opinion. Believe me, it is being very good sold, including its servers wich are just a bit more secure than Microsoft.
 
You wrote "So far, I've contacted with MLUG (Minsk Linux Users Group) activists and
with anarchists from "Navinki" group in Minsk, there are people from
both groups who are interested in participating in Belarus IMC. I expect
that there will also be people from Grodno (Razam Confederation) and
Gomel (BSD-Homiel and maybe GomeLUG) who will be interested, too, but it
will take more time to get in touch with them."
 
I am very happy for you. I strongly recommend you to create your own 'imc-minsk' and be with your 'anarchists' and 'linux developers' happy and let our 'imc-belarus' be happy. And also tell "people from Ukraine and Kazakhstan, as well as Russian-speaking people from around the world" which use Russian imc to be happy.
 
If you think that a group of youth from 'Navinki' and other similar pank groups are better than as - it is your Human Right and we, unlike you, respect it. If that groups want to create something like we did - go ahead. If any member of your company doesn't know us it is not our problem. We cooperate with almost everyone willing to share our view on Independent Media.
 
You just verbally abuse us and other your colleagues, which really believe in Independent Media. You are trying to fing accusations, but why? We have no 'nationalist' or 'proEU' position, this decoration on the top of our page just displays it's beloning to Belarus, its people, connection with the past indymedia activity centuries ago - it gives some regional regorgnition, we have not much images on our news pages and just try to compensate this fault by images which are easy to recorgnize, to pay attention. As soon as we ca we will change it to "INDEPENDENT MEDIA LOGOTYPE." 
Saying 'corporative ethics' I ment the atmosphere of respect, honor and hummanity.
 
I ask all colleagues to ignore this person unless he changes his behavior.
 
Kind regards,
team and editor for Belarus Independent
