	the linz discussion took place in a noisy environment - so i may
have missed some points; but i do not fully understand resumee's point 5
and 8 (but thanks a lot, zina): the global pirate network project would (as
far as i can imagine) meet some - hm - difficulties: is it meant to have
remote controlled machines with web-access that broadcast via mini-fm for
an hour to twentyfour/day? wouldn't that (to let beside possible probs with
the cops & the technical stuff) lead to a globally made radioprogramm that
is broadcasted very exclusively (for i have no idea how to connect
transmitters to the web for free) for a very small auditorium? and research
possible licenses for terrestrial stations - only to speak for germany: the
procedure for the stations i know mostly took some years hard work; and you
have to have a _local_ team.
	i'd propose two things in addition/alternative:
# lot of free radios in europe (and i presume that it is similar in other
places) let run loops, minidiscs or whatever during nighttime (means:
02.00-08.00 aproximately) - shouldn't it be possible to get these times for
xChange-broadcasts? it'd be global radio in another sense: australia makes
it to europe; europe to south-america &c. a known problem is that a lot of
those radios do not have too much experiences with using ra or the web in
general - but using one of the future events (n5m or whatever) to
coordinate and communicate with them should be possible (beside - during dx
last year we thought about having kind of a seminary 'free radios and the
web').
# close to juelich (german/netherlands border) the german telekom runs a
shortwavetransmitter with some 100 _kW_ (they have a small powerplant for
that). recently people from the bfr (association of free radios in d/a/ch)
were asked if they are not interested to use it - hourly costs are
relatively low (100 german marks - with lots of rebade if taken more
hours). it's lo-fi, i know; but to me it seems another possibility to have
a global radio - if not for 365 days/year, than for at least some nice 24
or 48 hours in next year's summer.

	ok - some rough thoughts: waiting to get barbecued net-live.
