[Netreach-L] Staying connected

Sat May 9 07:03:49 BST 2009

Dear NetReachers

First of all, I’d love to know who is still on this list and how many we
are. It’s really good of Olivier to keep up with the technology, and I’m
glad to learn about MailMan. The only lists I use are from the two online
petitions that I’ve published: Stop
<http://www.gopetition.co.uk/petitions/stop-the-cash-crumble-to-equalize-the
-credit-crunch.html>  the Cash Crumble to Equalize the Credit Crunch and
Financial <http://gopetition.co.uk/petitions/financial-fairness.html>
Fairness for Voters and Taxpayers, please!.

Secondly, I want to point out how much the British Computer
<http://www.bcs.org/>  Society provides now what we used to have in Room 97
in County Hall: a great meeting place in Central London. Advantage: free
coffee machine, open meeting space with 3 internet computers and 5 spaces
where you plug your laptop in, besides lots of meetings of Specialist Groups
on all sorts of computer related topics. Difficult to find the right
meeting, since that co-ordination is still in the making, but people are
trying: volunteers and staff alike. I have only introduced people
individually so far, because I like to go there for small meetings.
Associate membership has risen from £20 to £35 a year. 

The only big meeting I organised recently was “Challenging the Recession” at
the House of Commons in the Grand
<http://forumforstablecurrencies.wordpress.com/2009/04/26/apr-23-09-for-web-
posterity/>  Committee Room in the morning and the Gladstone Room 14
<http://rm14.wordpress.com/>  in the afternoon. A kind of summary of where
we stand re the origins
<http://forumforstablecurrencies.wordpress.com/hit-by-the-crisis/the-crisis-
in-a-nutshell/>  of the crisis and its effects
<http://forumforstablecurrencies.wordpress.com/financial-fairness/victimisat
ion-effects/> . 

Otherwise I keep trying to get either ‘free developers’ or investors to fund
programming for my 3D Metrics <http://3d-metrics.com/>  concepts and
software methods. The next big step consists of a team of 4 developers in
Berlin who will use the multimedia centre in my mum’s village in the former
DDR where I’ve been coming for years now. They will make my approach to
digital image analysis accessible via the web. The German blog
<http://buschow.eu/>  I started two years ago has been visited more than
4,600 times! I love using Wordpress for blogging and have even advanced from
Wordpress.com to Wordpress.org. 

Any chance of hearing from you what you are and have been up to? 

Yours most connectedly,

Sabine
