Dear all, Efloraofindia (efi), is the biggest database on net on Indian Flora. It's growing at a rapid pace with ever increasing members & posts. We are looking for volunteers who can take up work of building up/ improving efloraofindia (efi) website. One such work relates to connecting the threads & their material on efi website from efi e-group. Another major work can be addition of description for different species from Flora of British India (FBI) etc., whose copyright has expired. This will mainly be a cut & paste job, after finding the current botanical name. Necessary copy of FBI in pdf formats etc. will be made available to them, if required. Similar other works for improvements & implementation of new ideas etc. can also be taken up by the volunteers. Due credit will be given to them in the website. It will be an honorary job with a lot of potential to disseminate ones' learning about his/ her chosen subject. One may look after this work as per ones' convenience & time & to the extent possible. One will also be suitably rewarded with moderatorship of the group etc.
Any free institutional support in this regard is also welcome.
