I came across that site;

does anybody know anything about them. Where do they come from? When they're formed? ??

I believe they, as an international network, are of quite recent origin. Also, I think they originated and are still principally in Spain. Don't know much else, but one occasional poster on an email list I subscribe to also talks fairly good sense.

You guys are right, the International Luxemburgist Network (ILN : http://luxemburgism.lautre.net) is a very recent group (just a few months old) made up of comrades in the US, Spain, Chili, Argentina, Norway, UK, Portugal and France. It is a the moment, and as it is rather usual in many radical left groups, quite small.
We publish a bulletin called Mass Strike in English, Spanish and French (some articles get translated in other languages too). The first issue came out on November 1st 2008 and can be read at http://www.luxemburgism.lautre.net/spip.php?article15.
Being so recent, we are building this network as an anti-bureaucratic organization where not only internal democracy (freedom of dissent, views within the basis of our general views...) but free experimentation (we act locally according to our possibilities and opinion) are the key. We are preparing a second issue for the bulletin where there will be more articles on what we are and what is Luxemburgism for us.
We also participate in a forum some of us created related to Luxemburgism and open to those in general agreement with her ideas http://luxemburgism.forumr.net

Spartakus,
It is very encouraging and exciting to see internationalist voices from other parts of the world. I wanted to ask if did you think to do anything for Gaza?
also like to know a lot more about them - their website doesn't tell you much. One of the people linked to them posts under the name 'Silver' on revleft, including the 'left communist' forum, and often seems to talk sense. Our Spanish language site has put out a piece containing internationalist positions taken about the situation in Gaza, and it includes a statement from the 'Luxemburgists'. http://es.internationalism.org/node/2441
