east-timor list subscription information
 |
The best means for readers
to keep up to date with developments in TImor-Leste is to subscribe
to the news service of the East Timor and Indonesia Action Network
(ETAN). This is a tremendous resource, run on shoestring...
out of an apartment in Brooklyn, New York. -- Gordon Peake,
Beloved Land: Stories, Struggles
and Secrets from Timor-Leste |
The
east-timor list distributes news, analysis. and job and
other announcements from a wide range of sources, including East
Timorese groups, ETAN,
and other civil society and non-governmetal organizations . Reports
and translations from wire services and the Timor-Leste,
Indonesian, Portuguese, Australian, U.S. and other media
are included, along with official documents
and statements from the U.N. and its agencies,
international financial institutions and national governments. (The
east-timor list began as a newsgroup called reg.easttimor and is
sometimes known by that name.)
The number of postings (e-mails) can vary, averaging
5-15 per day, depending on the pace of Timor-Leste related events
and coverage. Once you are subscribed, you can
change to receive summaries only or many postings in one or two daily e-mails.
If you are interested in posting

The list is terrific
for avid TL-watchers, with a quality of discussion I haven't
seen in many other such forums. - Robin

I would like to take this
opportunity to thank you for the excellent work you have been
doing these last years in keeping all people interested in Timor-Leste's
present and future duly informed. Your objectivity and professionalism,
providing an essential space for everybody to express itself
freely has been a great contribution to consolidate Timor-Leste's
emerging democracy. It is an example of how to give voice to
the civil society and others at relatively low costs, an example
that many other countries should follow. - Pedro

I would also like to
take the opportunity to thank you for the wonderful service
you provide to us all; the sharing of information is crucial
to all of us involved in/ with Timor-Leste and we would be lost
without ETAN! -Siobhan

Congratulations for this
excellent source of up-to-date information about Timor Leste.
Keep up the good work! - Noëlle

And I shouldn't pass
up the chance to say a general thanks for the great work you
guys are doing at ETAN. It's four and a half years since I left
Timor and I still feel in touch with what is going on there
thanks to ETAN. So thank you! - Megan
