[AktiviX-discuss] Aktivix and the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions campaign against Israel

Hi

Aktivix now has a policy to not allow aktivix lists to be created for
groups organising Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaigns
against Israel (see http://www.bigcampaign.org/ for more info on the BDS
campaign in the UK).

However Aktivix has also hosted an active UK BDS list since 2005 with
over 70 people on it, this list predates the recent cchange in policy on
BDS groups:

To help get Aktivix out of this rather odd situation I'd like to offer
to leave and to help set up a new activist tech collective that does
offer list resources to BDS groups -- the BDS list could then be
migrated to a new server in as seemless manner possible.

Would anyone else be interested in helping with this?

All the best

Chris
