Thanks for responding. Where we have no one here from a N-L we will take the approach of archiving the N-L site. Where there is someone from a N-L project involved I much prefer to leave it their expert hands. I think that the idea of archiving the true legacy makes sense. We'll need to all come together to make sure the N-L approach will work and that it provides a good process for other N-L sites as volunteers appear. Best Regards, Dave > > Regards, > Andrea.
