[Peace-discuss] Mutual Aid Pact

[Alfred Kagan]

Barbara,

Thanks for your messages.  You are also inspiring to us!  One of the 
grand snafus with our Mutual Aid Pact is that we decided we wanted a 
website for the public and database that could be accessed by the 
small committee over the web.  This meant that we needed people with 
expertise to set it up and assign passwords.  That has gone through 
several phases.  It has worked for only a short time.  We have had to 
change the server and the software.  This is a major headache without 
computer support people who have the necessary resources available. 
We seem to have excellent and knowledgeable volunteers to do this, 
but it seems that they lack the necessary resources.  I would 
strongly advise against doing this unless you have that support. So 
the short answer is that the public website is still not up and 
available.  I am trying to make that happen in the near future and 
will then send you the URL.  Sorry for the long story.
