Hopes and Expectations
And_
specific goals: online video/video network stuff - "one of my babies"
strengthening the network.
inspiring people in oceania project and in indymedia
oceania has lots of potential - e.g. inspiration to belgium and is also spreading the idea of regional organising, "skilling-up" networking, helping eachother, getting stuff up, fixing problems.
