Dear Minhaaj, Thank you for your concern and queries. Wayne has been on the road for the past three weeks and will only be in one day tomorrow before he departs for another workshop the whole of next week. He will be back in the office full-time on September 8. I know he always tried to respond to queries as best as possible even while travelling.
I have been very unwell and away from the office as you know. Today is my first day back at work. I will look into this for you immediately, so we can get this issue sorted out. Please note that you are of value to us, please reassure your school administrations. We completely understand your frustrations but please also bear in mind that it is only Wayne and I at this end, who look after administrative things. In your case, the red tape did take longer than expected but it is partly due to extraordinary circumstances and business practices we do not normally carry out, having to send money through ways we do not normally use. It looks simple but is not as simple to change established business practices at our end. Apologies for the frustrations you had to endure. Warm regards, Patricia -----Original Message----- From: wikieducator@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Minhaaj ur Rehman Sent: Thursday, August 28, 2008 12:38 AM To: WikiEducator Subject: [WikiEducator] Bounty Release Dear Wayne, I had applied for L4C workshop bounty a month ago and i am disappointed that process has taken over a month and i have got school administration skeptic about my intentions to organize the workshop. I did expect that there would be redtape in COL's processes but didn't know that it would take ONE MONTH. I wonder if you can look into that and ensure the release of payment ? I wonder how many people would be encouraged by that bureaucracy. Patricia has done a real good job of keeping me abreast with updates but as now that she is sick, i wonder who is in charge. I am really sorry that no one has stepped up and looked into it. I wonder if thats the way we are going to treat WEs in this community. Savithri has applied for the L4C workshop on Gandhi's Birthday and i assume there would be a lot of other people interested in organizing workshops, and if that's how we are going to treat them, i don't think thats encouraging and even respectful to them. Since you are out of office too, or i would have called personally, i was wondering if you could point at someone.
