I did not see anyone respond to my request earler, so I will repeat it. I
apologize if I missed it in the 250 emails I got yesterday. ;)
Whoever is maintaining a list of the National/International protest
organizations, please stand up. The EFF is not in a position to be the
official International organizer because they are playing the diplomatic
role. Boycott Adobe has been retired, and I suspect Reject Mueller will
suffer a similar fate.
If nobody is performing such a service, I plead that someone do so and
announce their intentions to the list. The site could be plain and even
fully maintained by the organizers themselves to ease the burden on
updating.
Having a place to coordinate actions across the country and around the
world benefitted us in the first round, but in light of Declan's article
about the mindset on Captiol Hill, we need to build significant momentum
and mindshare to achieve the final outcome of reinstating freedom of
speech and fair use in the US. Our representatives in Washington have
issued us a challenge. We shouldn't be left out in the cold whenever the
EFF gets a meeting or a short-term goal is accomplished.
I would volunteer, but you saw what happened to my server on Monday. I
also have a full plate recruiting thinking people to our cause in MN.
Whoever undertakes this important task and will help us build an army of
extraordinary magnitude, and will have our gratitude.
