Hi Folks, I'm finally admitting defeat! I have become distracted with other projects and no longer am devoting the time needed to maintain the Waterways Guides site adequately.
I need help to keep the site up to date. Currently, there are a yearsworth of updates on the submission page and other e-mails have been sent to me directly. Obviously, a number of approaches are possible. #1 - I give up and let the site die. #2 - Someone with the skills required comes forward that can build the required tools to automate the site. #3 - I move the host so that others can share the tasks of manually keeping the site up to date. #4 - Other possible solutions. I am loathe to do #1. I am not convinced that building in greater automation to the site will overcome all of the problems I have maintaining it. I fancy solution #3. (I don't want to lose control completely, as I may find the time to become more actively involved again at some point in the future.) However, I am willing to listen to other proposals, if you have them. If you think you could help, and don't propose a radical commercialisation of the site, do let me know. Direct replies off-list/group are welcome. Mail addressed to "future at waterwaysguides.co.uk" (with the obvious substitution and spacing) should avoid my spam traps. -- Greg Chapman http://www.waterwaysguides.co.uk for updates to Nicholson, Imray and Pearsons Guides - and lots more! ------------------------ Yahoo!
