A perfect example of what not to send to this list. Throwing in the line
"and of cause a lot of webstandard skills" (sic) does not put it on-topic.

I suggest all new members read the guidelines (see the link in the footer).

Traffic (and signal-to-noise ratio) is an issue on this list (especially for
me who gets all the bounces - 471 of them yesterday) and with over 1100
addresses we must remain focussed and not abuse it. FYI, we handle 35,000 -
50,000 messages per week for this list alone.

Had Dietmar read the guidelines and asked first I (probably) would have
supplied an accepted, very brief format to do this advertisement.

Sending this type of post without approval will have you deleted from the
list. If in doubt, ask first!

I say again. PLEASE READ THE GUIDELINES!

Answer Dietmar off list if you must.

[WSG] OT: We need some international help! Urgently!

2004-10-29 Thread Dietmar Albers
Hi @llz,

We need some help and support setting up an international plattform!

A4F is a no-nonsense, instant-action based approach to family rights and
equal parenting, based on mutual self-help and rapid 'organic' growth. We
are now in the development phase and would very much appreciate some
practical ideas and contributions. The subject of relational rights is huge.
The idea of creating such a structure is to produce a very low-cost
institution capable of not dropping any enquiry, producing organisation,
through databased webforms, out of nothing, and thus being able to confront
family law professionals and other bureaucrats who make our lives with our
children sheer grief - if we are lucky enough to see them.
 
The development front page is set up at:
http://www.amnesty-4-families.org/A4F_dev_home.php
 
The aim is to create a peer-to-peer interface site which processes enquiries
and transforms them into actions and records. The structure is meant to
facilitate the activities of all groups and individuals working in the area
of family rights, not to supplant them.
 
Provisionally, two development site links have been set up on the above
webpage so that people can create site designs on their own webspace.
 
Email redirects for design teams will be set up as they define themselves
through the [EMAIL PROTECTED] email - please use it for initial dev
contacts.
 
Sample process concepts are indicated here:
http://www.amnesty-4-families.org/A4F_Concept.php

Required skills are for example: PHP, mySQL, any interface design skills,
any graphical design skills, and of cause a lot of webstandard skills.

Please contact us if you have any free capacities and any relationship to
worldwide family rights.

Yours,
Dietmar.
