David-

Thanks for getting in touch; you definitely sound like someone I'd like work with on this. As to your question, the Tunisian people don't yet seem to be in the position to drat a constitution quite yet, but of course that situation could come up and it's one of the things we're preparing for. 

I'll send you links to the documents we're now working on and give you a better sense of the assets we have available when I get home. For now, my intent is to continue producing material that can be spread among educated Tunisians with basic leadership qualities and meanwhile encourage communication among such people in preparation for some sort of national entity that could help secure the revolution. Will get back to you in a little while.

Hello, I'm Gregg's friend 'Consensus' (or David, or Kawphy, or
Uglycat... online communication is hard).

I was out of country from Dec. 23rd to Jan 3rd, and then had a lot of
work to catch up on, so I'm a little behind on the Tunisia situation -
but I'm pretty up on Anonymous, and have spent a LOT of time thinking
about how the internet can better steer national and international
narratives.

I'd love to start a dialog with you, and I'm open to information,
direction, and corrections of misconceptions.  I'm anxious to present
some of my own ideas, and work out ideas of how best to utilize free
speech to protect the Tunisian people, and to use the Tunisian
situation to drive home the importance of free speech.

I guess I'll kick things off with one (possibly newbie) question: Do
you know if Tunisia is drafting a new constitution, or if they're
trying to keep the old and structure their new government to fit the
existing one?

Thanks for your time,
David G.
