Subject: WELCOME TO CHIAPAS95


Chiapas95 was created to handle the distribution of information on the 
current crisis in Chiapas and in Mexico brought on by the Zapatista 
uprising of the indigenous and campesinos.

There are a number of sources of information on the Internet and on 
PeaceNet. To tap the entire flow requires s**scribing to a number of 
lists and conferences. At the least: Chiapas-l, Native-l and Mexico94 on 
the Internet, reg.mexico and list.chiapas on Peacenet. There are also a 
variety of sites on usenet and on the WWW as well. Information about how 
to access these cites can be found in the archives of this list.

This list provides a reduced amount of information culled from a much 
larger flow. What you will find here are mostly forwarded postings from the 
Zapatistas, their supporters, the press, various human rights groups and 
sometimes what I judge to be useful substantive comments by individuals 
or arguments among them. However, for the most part the chit-chat takes 
up considerable space on other lists is NOT reproduced here. This said, 
the amount of information provided here is substantial --more than those 
with only a casual interest are likely to want to deal with.

The postings to this list are archived and can be reached via gopher, 
either directly or on the WWW. 

Using gopher type:

gopher eco.utexas.edu  and look under mailing lists

On the web use:

gopher://mundo.eco.utexas.edu/11/mailing
