Christine Delphy was centrally involved in its writing (hence my connection, she asked me to translate it into English), and it was partially published in L'Humanité I think. There was also a speakout against the war on Dec 2 in Paris. For more info see the website http://cicg.free.fr/ There may be others, I don't know. But if by 'French Feminists' you mean Kristeva, Cixous & co, I would have no idea. Kristeva & Cixous do not in any case identify as feminist nor are they identified as such by other French feminists. Irigaray is a slightly different case. For more on this and more generally on the construction of "French Feminism" in the English-speaking world and esp. the US, see Delphy 1987 (Yale French Studies), Moses 1996 (Australian Feminist Studies) and myself 1997 (Women's Studies International Forum).
