>The D.C. Independent Media Center will host a Media Gathering Sept. 7-9 to 
>prepare for coverage of events around the fall meetings of the 
>International Monetary Fund and World Bank. The financial institutions 
>will be holding their meetings in D.C. during the weekend of Sept. 29-30, 
>and up to 10 days of alternative events and protests are being planned.
>
>The goal of the gathering is to conduct skill trainings, organize 
>logistics for running the IMC, and to give working groups the chance to 
>plan their production and develop their story ideas. We highly encourage 
>as many people as possible to attend the gathering to prepare for the end 
>of September.

>GATHERING AGENDA
>
>The exact schedule for the weekend and details of the workshops are still 
>being worked out. An announcement of the final schedule will be sent out 
>once it is completed. If you have ideas for workshops or would like to run 
>a workshop, please contact the appropriate coordinator (see below).
>
>The (very) tentative schedule is as follows:
>
>Friday evening -- reception, networking, films
>Saturday all day and night -- group gathering, trainings, working groups 
>meet, party
>Sunday day -- trainings, planning
>
>We will have access to a working space with Internet connection on Friday 
>and Saturday. Other spaces will be available without Internet access for 
>trainings and workshops throughout the weekend.
>
>COMMUNICATIONS
>
>To make the weekend as productive as possible, please coordinate with the 
>working group you'd like to be involved with ahead of time. We hope that 
>working groups will be able to use the time to do concrete work on ironing 
>out their production. At the same time, we think it will be invaluable if 
>all groups spend some time on skills sharing to get new people plugged 
>into their projects, as well as other IMCers.

>Volunteer coordinators are as follows:
