For India / a fountain We have been working on a completely volunteer PHP/ MySQL / Linux project for about 6 months. It is a low-overhead way to showcase and fundraise for new small charitable projects. We just received (Jan 10th) tax exemption from the IRS as well as clearance to give grants overseas. We expected to complete work in about 2-3 months using part-time PHP coders. Then the earthquake happened. So we are asking ourselves, even though we are not prepared, if we can mobilize our resources and build this in time to give rebuilding grants, health grants, and other assistance grants to India. It is impossible to do our very ambitious web-site with the handful of PHP coders and get it ready in time. But I have been on PHP.net's list-serve for a few weeks and I have seen the *fountain* of knowledge and assistance and so I can't resist asking for your help. Right now our team is distributed over the US (Virginia, California, Arizona) and we've had help from a coder in Croatia. And the last two to join are from Vitebsk, Bellarus, and Delhi, India. If you are interested in learning more please email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] I hope I didn't offend anyone for posting this non-tech notice but I had to ask. If a few of you said yes, it could make it a whole different ballgame.
