Greetings Listers I am one of the 20,000 subscribers to the Rookwood Anglican database, and like most of you am anxiously waiting for it to come back on line. Some time ago, the good people at the Anglican office made it clear that they did not have a budget for the work and were getting this project going with existing resources. I worked for many years in the computer industry and know what a difference some additional budget can make. So what do you think of the idea that those of us who are waiting, waiting. waiting make a small donation to the Anglicans to help speed up and them carefully test their work, if even half of the subscribers each donated $2.00 the project would receive an injection of $20,000 and I am sure that would help What do you think, is this idea worth pursuing Patrick Callaghan PS I havent spken to the people at Rookwood, seemed pointless if no one was interested in this idea

I haven't used the database, but would be happy to subscribe and make a donation. I know I will have rellies there Leith Davis On Sun, Feb 13, 2011 at 12:58 PM, patrick callaghan <[email protected]>wrote: > Greetings Listers > I am one of the 20,000 subscribers to the Rookwood Anglican database, and > like most of you am anxiously > waiting for it to come back on line. > Some time ago, the good people at the Anglican office made it clear that > they did not have a budget for the work > and were getting this project going with existing resources.
