Here you see the problem, they won't work together, they won;t share information instead of doing what the majority of the IM readers and contributors want which is to open the newswire to others and let the wider readership be involved in the decision making they "hide" the post and refuse to discuss it.

Since I first saw the discussions taking place this morning I sent three emails to the list (which is where discussions of this sort are always refered) and not only do I get no reply but my emails are removed from the public section of the lists forum as soon as they appear to prevent knowledge of the wider discusion.

The stupidity of all this is that while the small IM editorial group refuses to discuss progress everybody else is talking about it on other activist discussion boards and planning for the set up of Indymedia GB. It could all have been so different but hey !
