Neat. I can't work out what the second photo is though.
It kinda loses something without the context. It's a micro-hydroelectric plant we stumbled upon in a village in NW Vietnam. We followed the spiderweb of cables strung from all the houses to this stream, which emerged from a cave, to find sluices going into oil drums. The turbines are hand-carved bamboo and the genrators are motorbike alternators. I was well impressed.
So, what sort of thing do you need from us? Are you wanting a way to customise the openguides software to your needs, or are you wondering about ways to connect up the guides a bit more, so say the London guide would automatically have links to the London bits of your guide in the right places and vice versa?
Well all of the above, I guess. For starters, I'd love to have somewhere to host it. I have a (user mode linux) server but it's kinda RAM-limited, and I suspect a busy Wiki would bring it to its knees.
But more importantly, how does it fit in with the whole Openguides idea? And how do you bridge the gaps between them? You end up with all kinds of metadata problems if you expect each guide to use the same kinds of categories, geographical standards etc (e.g., UK postcodes are unique in the world for the way they work).
