I would like to know generally, what are the copyright conditions  of these
IFEX email messages. We would be intrested in to read these mails on radio
both in English and in Finnish and peobebly on other languages. We would -
naturellement - mention the source. Radio Robin Hood, RRH is a multicultural
and multilinqual non-profit community radio situated on the south-west coast
of Finland, in Turku.  RRH  is a member of World's Association of Community
Radio Broadcasters, AMARC and our broadcasting principle are the freedom of
speech, democracy and equality (gender, race, ethnic background, social
situation). RRH is going to expand it's broadcasting into Internet during
this year by a Net Radio Robin Hood. Broadcastings will be presented at
least in Finnish and in English, later in Arabic, Russian, Vietnamese,
Chinese, Persian, Somali and probably also in Swedish, Spanish, French (all
spoken feature programs). We would be very intrested to cooperate with IFEX.
