Excellent news, as you know you have the full support of IMC bristol in
your proposal.
You might find that an indymedia mailing list is a good way to get
started and initiate communications, make a record of your project, anmd
of course enable people to contact / contribute to the project.
http://newlist.indymedia.org/
http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/listinfo/listwork
We have certainly found this service invaluable for the bristol project...
Cheers,
Mike
