Hi All
Some time ago, Andy Carvin asked for volunteers to help at
www.digitaldivide.net. I volunteered for the animation of the discussion
boards. But in one discussion thread -
<http://www.digitaldivide.net/discussion/viewtopic.php?p=813> - a tech
problem crept up: someone had published an article, sharing it with his
community, but the article didn't show in that community.
I didn't understand why the article didn't show, so I jut made a link to
it in the community resources. But I wanted to ask a question about it
on the official Help discussion board, as I understand very little about
tech. However, this board is one of those that were created before the
November 2005 Hack By KuBRaT, and it is still unavailable.
On the other hand, communities opened after the hack have a working
discussion board. So, as a makeshift solution, I opened a new community,
which I called "Informal DDN Help Board"
<http://www.digitaldivide.net/community/help2>, in order to produce an
"Informal DDN Help Board" discussion board:
<http://www.digitaldivide.net/discussion/viewforum.php?f=177>, for tech
questions about using DDN.
So now the informal help board is there, but:
a) it is not linked solidly anywhere in the other pages; i.e. its
presence in other pages depends on there being recent messages in it.
b) Moreover the index page that used to list all discussion boards,
<http://www.digitaldivide.net/discussion/index.php>, is among those
still unviewable due to the hack
-> So how should it be kept visible for people who wnt to ask questions
about tech problems? Posting there just in order to "bump it" seems a
bit silly.
c) I'm still as tech ignorant as ever.
-> So would people who are tech competent please kindly check this board
from time to time, to see if there are new unanswered questions?
It would only be until TIG people fix the hacked bords and index page.
Thank you in advance,
cheers
Claude
