Our resident timeline maniac, Alberto Monteiro, could also be of great help. Like I said, if you need help you only have to ask. Welcome, Matt! It's always good to see another person straddling both Brin-Ls. :-) I'm glad to hear somebody's taking over that Uplift encyclopedia. I'll be happy to help if I can. And, by the way, I'm hoping we'll see you in the weekly Brin-L chat on Wednesdays. See my site for details: http://www.brin-l.org/brinmud.html __ Steve Sloan .

Welcome aboard. This is a wild group. As far as postings go, On-topic is like a rare wine, to be savored. Some simple rules... * If you want Dr. Brin to see your message, include 'BRIN' in the subject. * Text only replies Blood has been spilt over posts done in HTML. You'll catch on to the rest as time moves on. My own personal rule... NEVER post facts without facts to back your claims... I have the reputation of the Baghdad Bob of the Brin List ...

And if BRIN is in the subject line and it's wandering off onto a tangent, either remove BRIN or change one of the characters to something else, so as not to clutter up his inbox with stupid ridiculousness (as opposed to non-stupid ridiculousness). * Text only replies Blood has been spilt over posts done in HTML. Oh, come on, the scratches may have drawn blood, but not badly enough to spill. ;) You'll catch on to the rest as time moves on. And if you miss something, *someone* will let you know, one way or another. My own personal rule... NEVER post facts without facts to back your claims... I have the reputation of the Baghdad Bob of the Brin List ... Keep this in mind triply so if you decide to engage in debate with Dan M. This should also be very much taken into account if you engage in debate with Erik, as well. And some other people, but I'm too fried right now to remember all of them. Again, Welcome aboard... Welcome from me, as well. It was a delight to find your initial post in the pile of posts needing moderator approval, something not spam and very much on-topic to boot! :) Julia ___ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l

If mr. Shipley and I reach an agreement (and I trust we will), would the members of this community be willing to aid me in improving and expanding the A4PE? Rough ideas for now are: include/expand items such as a complete cast of characters, information on the various characters and races, adding graphics, and improving the overall look feel of the site. Any suggestions and help will be welcome and appreciated. I especially could use help in the field of graphics, as my own talents at designing graphics are not worth mentioning. I believe this is enough for a first message. I look forward to further discussion! With regards, Matt Lundstrom You'll have to put up with everything I've suggested and our good Dr. Brin has not made official. See all of the work so far at http://www.sloan3d.com/brinl/stories/index.html (And I really should get that important Rousit piece redone.)

Sounds great to me, I don't know why anyone here would have any objections. As you may have determined (and to quote an early member*) All is Brin on this list, but please feel free to jump in with questions and/or requests.
