Each week there will > be a new number of a bulletin in three chapters, entitled: > National Information, General Analysis and Chiapas. As well, we > shall provide a forum for questions to do with solidarity and > action alerts that will be called: Solidarity. > > 2) The bulletin will be sent from the Iberoamerican University > here in Mexico City to all those who want it once they have > subscribed to this service (cost free). The technical details > for subscription are below. > > 3) For those who still do not have e-mail, we would like to urge > you to try and find out how you might get access to it.
