Almost nothing about the Encuentro is certain yet, since all decisions will come out of that consultation; the only thing we know is that it will not take place before july 2006 (but it is still unknown when and where it will happen, in case it does). The EZLN writes:

"So that the conception, organization and holding of the Intercontinental Encuentro proposed in the Sexta can be produced with the real participation of supporters throughout the world, and not as a unilateral decision by the EZLN, as of December 1 of this year and at least until June 30, 2006, meetings and preparation consultations, of groups, personal or cyber, will be held so that proposals can be made for the Intercontinental (including the place and times it is to be held). This will be done by agreement of the majority. At the end of this 7 month consultation stage, it will be decided
whether the consultation should continue or if the Intercontinental should be held as of July of 2006."

They also announce that "Preparation meetings can be held in other countries. If they are advised in sufficient time, the EZLN's Intergalactic Committee will send someone", and that "For the cyber consultation, the Intergalactic Committee will put into operation, as of December 1, 2005, the web page:  http://zeztainternazional.ezln.org.mx (yes, like that, with "z"). This web site will receive international subscribers to the Sixth Declaration as well as proposals and comments concerning the Intercontinental"

And for those who haven't read it yet, the Sixth Declaration of the Lacandon Rainforest (where the idea of the Intercontinental Encuentro is proposed) is in  http://www.why-war.com/files/sixthselvalacandona.html (and many other websites).
