Subject: the documents that made the difference

I wonder if it would be possible to make the FFII voting list visible (and
avaiable for download) on the NSP site together with the 21 compromise
amendments document.

I feel those 2nd reading documents are really the essence of our efforts
and clearly, when you in see the massive political support we had (look at
Article 1; am 40=72=93=114=135=158; PES, EUL/NGL, Greens/EFA, IND/DEM,
ROITHOV? ao, DUFF ao), the rejection of the directive is really a
tremendous victory. I can hardly believe we made it, even if I was there
:-)

I also feel encouraged by the documents. What stops us from changing the
world again? Nothing but hard work :-)

I think making the docs visible and avaiable will provide a necessary link
between the NSP campaign success and the 2nd reading victory, and also to
some extent explain why Florian gives so much cred to FFII.
