So, can one of you Libcom clever cloggs set this forum up, please? There seems to be a demand for it.

As I understand it, it's an open forum for Libcommers who arealso in the IWW and anyone else who might be interested. Called Libcom Wobblies. It's not an official IWW forum, just a place for libcom wobblies to lay their hats and put their feet under the table.

Right ok... are other wobblies up for it then?

Once the reorganisation of the other forums have gone thru we can stick it in as long as the collective is fine with it.

Cool, don't see a problem with it, but let us get this done first. Posting your opinions on there in favour of our suggestions might speed that up a bit as well eh wink

I think it definitely should be - to make it clear it is for libcom wobblies. the IWW didn't want a forum here cos they're not a libertarian communist group. Having it like it is makes it look official.

no. and it's all battlescarred's fault tongue

[well, actually, it's all of our faults really, but we need a scapegoat grin ]

it is very very very likely to start at 3pm. wobs will be going straight from the picket to the meeting, so if the worst comes to the worst just follow them.
