Dear friends, This is an important announcement. We probably won't give more details than this, though some formal statement in our blog may be forthcoming. A sister organisation and the p2p foundation were victims of two 'psy-ops' that came in the form of forgeries and intrusion that resulted in the blocking and email deletions of strategic relationships in both skype and gmail. What had seemed communication flukes turned out to be willful disruptions. It seems that at least since December last year my gmail box has been manipulated (this is not a figment of our imagination, it's documented), resulting in serious harm. It seems the mailboxes are now safe, though I may eventually switch more systematically to [email protected]. In the meantime, if you feel certain crucial communications were not replied to, feel free to resend, This is also an appeal for support. We need more technical support, and more financial support. Suggestions and assistance are welcome. Just as examples, I have to use a 6-year old computer with a broken keyboard, and cannot afford healthcare. When travelling abroad, I cannot afford to use my telephone. We could do a lot more with the right kind of support! Anyone concerned about our work and willing to support us in concrete ways, now is a good time!
