Our recent post on the decision by the Witness project to build a web server to collect digital camera and cameraphone images from human rights workers around the world has had an unexpected -- and wonderful -- result. Witness employee Bryan Nunez is participating in the resulting discussion, and, upon the suggestion of a couple of the other participants, has opened up a forum on the Witness website to allow the broader community to help figure out just what the digital portal will need to be successful.

The Witness digital video site will be a profoundly important step for the organization, and for human rights around the world -- giving the citizens in the greatest danger a chance to play a role in change for the better, with greater safety and a swifter response.

If you have thoughts on what the project might need, please take a moment to join the discussion, both here and (more importantly) at the Witness website.
