Hi Nellie, It is any kind of news, typically that of a "project", but of a lower level than say, the front news page.
By also posting the same item on a country page, it will help strengthen community efforts, from people in a specific region. Patricia, regarding the existence of another page -- you're right....but for some reason it must have slipped my mind. In the self-organizing world of the wiki, folks can use either page. <smile> - Randy On Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 1:31 PM, NELLIE DEUTSCH < [email protected]> wrote: > Great initiative, but what kind of news, Randy?
