hi,
hello from sheffield :) - i've just read your list archive [1] and thought i'd say hi from sheffield indymedia http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/regions/sheffield/ (list archive http://lists.indymedia.org/pipermail/imc-sheffield/)
we've not been going much longer than you and launched our web site last month - i thought you may be interested in the lead story 'Free Software Matters' [2]
i'd be interested in trying to raise UK MEPs awareness to The European Parliment vote on the software patents directive on the 1 st of september ... and intend to plagarise your archive and compose some spam - i hope this ok ;)
all the best
-- adam
