yes, well, it has its limitations -- we are always looking
for improvement and suggestions. As for the lib caps, that
is to do with its pre-history as an anarchist anti-lib cap
document. As for the Marxists, well, that needs to be done
and unfortunately section H is the only unfinished section
left...

please be more specific. if there is anything which is
considered lacking or uncovered, please let me know.
Unfortunately, the primitivists I asked to contribute
a section on the subject after they complained it was
not really mentioned failed to get back to me. So
if anyone feels something is missing, please contribute
something or suggest a question we can get round to
going,

Iain
