Paris, July 1st, 2009 (AFP) – We learn today from his lawyer that a disciplinary procedure was engaged against an officer of gendarmerie who is blamed by his hierarchy for ” serious failing in his duty of reserve”.

The major Jean-Hugues Matelly, who also is a researcher associated with the CNRS (NATIONAL CENTER FOR SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH), had expressed himself publicly at the end of 2008, – as a researcher, according to his lawyer David Dassa Le Deist-, about the link police / gendarmerie force within the Home Office.

This link is actual since January, 2009. He saw the crossing of the gendarmes, servicemen, from the Ministry of Defense to the Home Office, while they keep their military status.

Mr Matelly had expressed himself on this link in the press, considering that the gendarmerie was going to ” be buried in the general indifference ” with this reform wanted by the Head of State.

A procedure to make the gendarme appear in front of the council of investigation, the disciplinary authority of the gendarmerie, was officially notified to him on June 16th, according to his lawyer. In this official document, which was transmitted to AFP, he is blamed for a serious “neglect in the duty of reserve “. The document also says that Mr Matelly expressed a ” clear disapproval towards the politics of the government “. The fact that he expresses himself as researcher does not ” exempt him from the requirement of loyalty and neutrality bound to his military status “, this document adds.”

Forbidding free speach to the gendarmes prevents citizens to get any real information on a public service in charge of their security and its evolution.

Interzone report: May 2009

Paul O’Donovan: “My Baobab Retreat House”

Hi all,

Blogs :

The blog Interzone news http://interzone-news.blogspot.com/ has been supressed during some days, probably because of an error from a robot. I thought it had definitely gone, but it came back after some days after I complained. In the meantime I had created another one, Interzone news’ blog at http://interzonenews.wordpress.com/ . I am keeping it as a mirror site.

I like the web pages preview on the links at WordPress.

If Zoners want to post their news directly on the blogs, I can add them to the page “authors”.

August: 12th anniversary of Interzone:

It’s been 12 years since this net is working !!! 12 years of monthly reports relating Zoners’ activitis included my own ones.

What shall we do for the occasion ?

I suggest a meeting on internet : the chat of Interzone forum is practical and can welcome a large numer of people without disconnecting. We can use other tools as Skype. Othger suggestions ? If some of you happend to be in France at this time, let me know here.

Interzone compilation :

I have finished to gather the tome of the Time of the Naguals which contains the articles. It is 237 pages thick. The contents is too big to be included in this page, so it’s on line at http://aubert.isa.googlepages.com/articlescontents.htm . It is in an OpenOffice writer file, which I can convert in pdf.

I suggest to send it in pdf through mail to all the zoners who have written in it, for free of course.

Twitter:

I have subscribed at twitter http://twitter.com/ You can follow me there at Izzy 23’s twitter, as well as shocker_TV (Foe) http://twitter.com/shocker_tv and Grazulis (Gary) http://twitter.com/grazulis .

Foe, Gary and I got in touch on the first day of Interzone on August 10th 1997, and we are still in touch, which is absolutely great !

Sites :

Changes to come in free providers :

Changes are going to happen soon in google pages and geocities :

- Googles pages system is going to become Google sites : this concerns the sites Interzone reports and Interzone Galleries. So the adresses will change, and visits to the googlepages.com URL will be redirected to the new sites by Google.

- Geocities :

Geocities new sites are no longer available and the existing sites will be closed later this year. This concerns the sites Interzone Academy , Interzone Library , Rédacteurs Reporters d’Interzone and BD d’Interzone , so a lot of existing pages, and remaking the sites somewhere else would be a real brainstorm due to their size.

A number of Zoners have sites in Geocities. What do you foresee for them ? Is it possible to migrate them to another free space ? Any tip welcome.

Yannig : come to see my web site :
