<br><br>SAYS-US is a new initative taken by Frank Kashner, who recently joi=
ned<br>
the list. Thanks Frank and welcome to the list.<br>
<br>
Frank and I did meet and talk about this really interesting webspace<br>
initiative and decided to collaborate on developing it further. We had<br>
several skype calls to think how to network and organize around the<br>
idea. Below is the text from the front page of the <a href=3D"http://saysus=
.net" target=3D"_blank">saysus.net</a> . It is<br>
quite a complementary project, to another really interesting project<br>
recently launched: by NetwzerkIT, the <a href=3D"http://labourleaks.org" ta=
rget=3D"_blank">labourleaks.org</a><br>
Both are collaborative efforts need your support, and solidarity of any kin=
