Re: [Ql-Users] The Last Five Years
I installed a few CMS systems offline at sinclairql.com to try them out, and honestly, wordpress came out as the simplest and best. I will make it a mission to get that all up and running during Jan/Feb. Then, anyone who wants to become an editor can do so. Also, there will be some new hardware this year - SDHC interfaces coming out of Germany, and other things from other places If you're not a Quanta member, you might want to join this year.

I have written to Mike who runs the Cambridge Raspberry Jam to see if we can invade one of those after all it gets us to Cambridge in a nice place with kindred spirits around . Emulation of the QL via the Pi may also be a talking point. It's only been a day and he's not come back as of yet so lets see what he comes back with! Any further ideas from the list ?
