Absolutely. Anyone who reads German might like to take a look at http://home.kamp.net/home/kai.raven/miniwahr/mini2.html which is surely one of the most comprehensive Echelon sites around. It also has nice grafics, especially the "pgp against Echelon" GIF ;-) . I'm sure there are more sites like this out there, it's just a matter of finding them and contacting those people to ask them to contribute to the day (the week, the month, etc.).

There is actually a very up to date project on the crypto/privacy situation in dozens of countries somewhere on the Web but my browser crashed last time I saw it.... I'll post it if I find it again.
A general news update section would be a good element of the site too. There are so many news items, the more we can link to the greater the cred is that this isn't just some conspiracy theory (although by now that should be clear to most).

I guess those guys must be sympathetic towards us. Why else would they have publicised the email? Thanks "securityportal"! Now take that English course and learn how to write a proper article.
