Hi Dominic, I think you could also remove New York. Unfortunately I never really had a chance to build it up as much as I wanted and those spammers are killing me ...

If any of these guides are ever resurrected, they can of course go back on. However, in happier news, there is an addition to the list, namely the Open Guide to CERN: http://cern.openguides.org/ It's hosted by Bob, and adminned by me, Bob, and Richard Plackett (Richard is the one who actually has a connection to CERN). Its geographical remit is "Geneva and its environs in Switzerland, out as far as Thoiry and Gex in France". Also, thanks to behind-the-scenes work by Kat and Dom, the OpenGuides website is now pretty easy to update, and so I've been fixing a few long-standing niggles with it (as well as adding new news). The design still needs work, but this is now much much easier to do than it was a few months ago. So if there's anything you think needs adding or changing, please shout! Kake

Hi! On Tue, Aug 19, 2008 at 07:07:25PM +0100, Kake L Pugh wrote: Uhm, I guess that's not what I wanted to say, at least not in the general sense. But still, it depends on the number of volunteers and the involved money. In Vienna's case, that's one or two people with no time vs. an "aggressive" startup. Well, I miss-phrased my assertion. What I meant was "Usually a group of people who get paid for their job do better then one or two volunteers with no significant time (actually, no time at all...) to spend on the project." But still, too bad that it didn't work out for Vienna, and it definitly wasn't the fault of the software... -- #!/usr/bin/perl http://domm.plix.at for(ref bless{},just'another'perl'hacker){s-:+-$"-g&&print$_.$/}
