Dear All,
I couldn't be happier that WNF has gotten legally registered, thanks to Caleb
and the rest who put in lots of effort to see it done. This has done us proud
and is (direct translation) "One Nill to other regions". I am quite sure that
the executive is or will be installed sooner or later, no cause to worry I
suppose.
I am also impressed by the level of deep sense of maturity of the discussions
going on lately. I think that's how we from that region always reasoned issues
out. Exchange of verbal artillery and unprecedented attacks of persons has
never
been and shall never be a solution. If the moderator as has been discussed on
this forum is doing his/her job resulting in these clean discussions, I salute
you big time.
But now there is a big problem, at least for me.
I always chew the cud, meaning I want to go back and re-read some earlier and
highly articulated discussions which may have been closed or gone limbo and
forgotten. Each time I want to do this, I have to score through tons and tons
of
e-mails, apply filter after filter to narrow down the search base and retrieve
what I am looking for. This effort a good number of times does not yield any
results. You will notice that these mail applications we use don't have
exhaustive search-base builders. Again, the issues discussed are not aggregated
into subject areas. This really makes life very difficult for me if I am to
reference some of the issues discussed for personal use or otherwise. We should
all realise that through these net discussions we are building a sound
knowledge
base and we all know the importance of this.
I would suggest that, WNF should have a thoroughly crafted web site with
discussion forum pages where discussions are aggregated based on topical issues
or subject areas for that matter. Now that WNF has been registered, it really
needs to have a public face where every body can read the Vision, Mission and
Strategies, progress of projects accomplished, issues under discussion e.t.c.
and e.t.c. The pictures and manifestos of each of our politicians could be
published on this very website, there then would be no e-mail requests for
manifestos and worries about document formats. The limit of what can be
published would be moderated by the Content manager of this site, who ideally
would be on the Execute committee of WNF.
If this be Ok with you brethren, then me, okuti, patrick et al in that
fraternity can provide technical support and guidance.
Over to you guyz for your comments
