It turns out that invite codes can only be used once.
Also, riseup may not be a good choice. Their website says that
they're way behind on their email deliveries, and AOL is blocking
mail from riseup. In addition, riseup has a 'politically correct'
usage policy that you may or may not approve of. Although their
sentiments seem sensible, to me at least, I'm uncomfortable with the
idea of equating 'some of the left' with 'the good', seeking to
inhibit expression by others, and inhibiting dialog across social
divisions. From their website:
Solidarity: riseup.net affirms common cause and solidarity
with a broad spectrum of the political left. However, there
are some things which we cannot support. We ask that you do
not use riseup.net services to advocate any of the
following:
* Support for capitalism, domination, or hierarchy.
* The idea that class oppression supersedes race or
gender oppression.
* A vanguard strategy for revolution.
* Population control.
In any case, if anyone is interested in getting a riseup email
account, let me know and I'll send you an invite code. I've got four
on hand already, and their website says nothing about a limit.
