    Default Maya Mountain Research Farm gets a web page, (sort of)

    Dear All,

    Well, my significantly betterhalf has been working hard recently. Usually she is working on farmie type things, garden beds, nurseries, managing the wwoofers, etc, farm type things.

    Anyway, she is working on a web page, which you can see at http://www.mmrfbz.org (also NOW featured in my signature!). It is a bare bones item so far, and will have a few problems (being sorted), but it is a start.

    It has an anemic home page, waiting to be fleshed out, and a page about the upcoming Permaculture Design Course here at Maya Mountain Research Farm next February. We are working on several other pages now.

    Anyway, just wanted to share it with all'o'y'all in Oz. If you have any input, ideas, etc, let me know.... this is Dawns first web anything, and I am very happy with it. She, being a perfectionist, is only half happy with it :? .

    Nice work Christopher, or Dawn more to the point, tell Dawn that both pages work great on a windows XP based puter using internet explorer, opera, and firefox..... Good to see a website working well across all the different operating systems and browsers.. Oh and nice useful meta tags too, two thumbs up... :thumbup: :thumbup:


    Damn you have such nice green jungle.......

    Yep I tested it from Unix and Fedora (linux) and XP. All good..

    Yeah, well I've been a bit blah, as I really bored.. Got my application into the Uni today.. Found out it had to be in by this friday,, (lucky find)

    Been trying to get overseas for ever (Have been but with work (ARMY) and wasn't at all pleasant in most cases)

    And I thought yeah I'll go see Chris and do the PDC.. Then Sam suggested it, so now I may.. But like all things, money comes into play and being after Christmas I'm not really got know I can afford it until maybe end of December so I hope there will be spots left

    Dear Juan Anall,

    Thank you all for your words of encouragement and al the hardcore testing on various OS's. Dawn is glowing in your praise (tho typically Dawn, she is pretending she isn't glowing..). She is obviously pleased... and so am I.

    Dan the Man, wow! It wouold be great for you to come over for the course, I mean REALLY great! Really great doesn't cover it! It would be sooo-o-o-oooooo fantastic! Thanks also for the bug report. MMRF's very own IT babe is on it. She says she needs to do something... and I will leave that to here.

    Joel, green now, rainy season, but things get a distinctly brown tint, in a greenish way in the dry.

    Oh Great Queen (etc...), I, your huimblest of servants have forwarded the message to my Empress.

    Tezza, thanks for your positive words.

    Anyway, she has been working on it for weeks, in a part time frenzied dealing with other stuff kind of way, and she posted it with no fanfare (no cigars, no massive emails to all friends)... so this is my litlle fanfare....

    Best to all of you,

    C

    Hi Christopher,

    Wow! That looks fantastic. What a beautiful area you live in, and it looks warm too. :sunny:

    Please tell Dawn how clever she is to have used that wonderful bamboo as the wallpaper stationary. And did you say something about anaemic? Does Dawn know you said that? :silent: It looks far from anaemic to me, but you guys obviously have some ideas about what you want to 'flesh it out' with so until that's done, it probably does look anaemic to you, once again focusing on the work yet to be done, like our gardens!

    I'm very envious of Dan, even considering heading over.

    Hey Tully, they've got a rooster like Napoleon!!!

    Well done, I have added it to my favorites.

    Tam
