Many thanks for signing in Kasaqa - we now have a community here of over 400 members from around the world working to improve documentation of humanity's cultural heritage using the Arches software package. I too am enjoying the sunshine in Swindon in central southern England, although the view is rather obscured by scaffolding put up around the 19th century building I work in.
