[g8-sheffield] SWP gearing up to contribute/spoil things for everyone else? Africa forum

[Philippe Deux]

The Dissent peoples are having some trouble creating and coordinating 
websites and local groups.

*What do persons in this list think* about

1) Including the SSF contact data  on dissent website as a local working 
group in Sheffield.
2) Offering the media-watch team from dissent  (or the SWP sheffield 
group) some corner of the SSF-Wiki? It could be good publicity for the 
Wiki and a way to attract serious contacts...(please check message below).

3,000 leaflets! Look at this idea that is being discussed by email about 
a call for the g8 to DISBAND.
What do you think about the proposal? They need help with the writing.

O i have  to work hard at a translation for the visually disabled.
see ya
