Let's hope this one is a little better organised than last time!  I propose 
the following, suggestions for changes in arrangements are most welcome:

We'll gather at the East end of Princes Street, and form a concentrated 
pocket of leafletting.  A couple of us (or more!) will go and stake out 
likely spots (outside Waterstones, HMV, Virgin, etc).  As far as the timing 
is concerned, ideally it should coincide with the London protest (i.e. we 
should meet at 1315, say).  However, I realise that lunchtime may be quite an 
inconvenient time, so if it would enable more people to attend, perhaps a 
protest in the evening sunshine is more appropriate (let me know if this is 
the case!).

I'll be e-mailing all of those who attended last time in person, and 
hopefully will be able to get some sort of announcement out on the Edinburgh 
Uni computer science dept. e-mail list.  If anyone has access to other likely 
mailing lists (other Universities anyone?) do let me know.

Seeing as this protest is being 'officially' announced 4 days in advance (as 
opposed to 1 day last time) I'm hoping that we'll be able to gather together 
significantly more than the 7 who made it last time.  If you know anyone 
who's in Edinburgh (perhaps for the festival?) and might like to attend then 
please let them know.
