This didn't make it to the list, and I think it should of. (Please note also that there are several sites devoted to finding victims, if you can find a way to make a search for all of them or get soem data sharing together please help those site ops out). And from TechTV by way of UserFriendly.org: If you have exta equipment laying around or are a MSCE or Citrix guru, go here: http://www.techtv.com/screensavers/showtell/story/0,23008,3347294,00.html and see how you can help the RedCross Emergency Teams. -n -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- nathan hruby / digital statement na...@ds... http://www.dstatement.com/ Public GPG key can be found at: http://www.dstatement.com/nathan-gpg-key.txt ED54 9A5E 132D BD01 9103 EEF3 E1B9 4738 EC90 801B -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2001 17:36:54 -0700 From: Alan T. Miller <am...@ho...> To: php...@li..., pea...@li... Subject: VOLUNTEERS NEEDED... USA Memorial website for Terrorist victims and families. Please forgive the off topic announcement I am posting here. However, I would like to make an appeal to the open source community, in this case the PEAR and PHPLIB communities, to assist in doing something to honor those who have tragically lost their lives as a result of the recent terrorist attacks on the US and help to alleviate some of the pain those families feel and the rest of us feel. I thought that it would be appropriate at this time to build a website where families of the victims can post a photograph or two of their loved ones along with a few words about those people. The site would serve to not only help ease the pain for those families but also to give the rest of us a venue to help deal with the tragedy and make sure that those who have lost their lives do not go unnoticed. I have been in contact with a fairly large ISP who may be willing to provide the server environment for this project, I have considered a few ideas for domain names, the problem is that the project is too big for me to handle by myself, and in the interests of timing, I simply need help to pull it off in a timely manner. If anyone is interested in helping coordinate and build such a site, please respond to me personally at am...@ho... or, if it is not innapropriate, here in this mail list. You might say I chose to contact those here in the PHPLIB and PEAR lists because I am comfortable working with PEAR components and PHPLIB, and feel after reading through and taking part in both of these lists for a while, I know some of you fairly well, and I know there are some very capable people in this list who like the spirit of open source itself, have a past of contributing to a good cause. The web site I have in mind would be simple at first with two main components. First, a user based system to allow families to log in and upload their photographs and text. Second, a web based front end to browse that information in the database. I have programmed some scripts for a site I use that can handle multiple photograph uploads but probabably need a good code review. Anyone interested??? |
