Re: Pali Content Mgt System

Dear Harry, Connie and friends,

please take note, Harry,

1. this is not an endorsement of your proposed Pali Content Mgt
System (or software). It is only my opinion that it is a good idea.

I have no idea what you are doing, is it going to be a software that
runs outside the standard browser?

2. the general rule in terms of materials you can incorporate in your
proposed software:

(a) Tipitaka.net -- unless otherwise specified, you are free to use
the materials on the site, on the condition that you do not charge a
cost to others. Please check individual page for details.

(b) www.geocities.com/paligroup/ -- unless otherwise specified, you
can only use the materials as they are originally designed. Some of
the materials are made available for the purpose of study only. You
have to obtain permission from respective COPYRIGHT OWNERS before you
include them in your proposed software.


metta,
Yong Peng.

Connie, Yong Peng has just given me the green light. Please let me
know how to fulfill your request. Please try to push it until it
crashes. A software is not a good software if it is not stable and
user friendly. But the problem is : the person who creates it
doesn't know. Besides this writer is very poor in design. Whatever
you are not happy with, stability or navigation or.. anything,
please yell. It will be re-done until the end users or you are
happy. Then it may become a useful software.

Yong Peng, thanks for your kindness. Does the green light include
study materials from www.geocities.com/paligroup/ ? There is a plan
for a separate intermediate and an advance level versions as time
progresses. I hope to develop it further under the group's
supervison and guidance. But I won't and don't want to be the
project manager. Any senior member nominated by the group will do.
S/he doesn't have to be a techie. Please .....
