Dear Colleagues: We are pleased to announce the launch of the Greenstone Support Organization for South Asia on April 5, 2006. Our objective is to ensure effective promotion and support for Greenstone in the South Asia region. The support site is available at http://greenstonesupport.iimk.ac.in. Please visit the site and your valued contributions towards enriching the site are most welcome. An E-List with the ID greenstonesupport@iimk.ac.in is also established for this purpose. Your contributions/suggestions/comments for attention by the community can be submitted to this mail ID. Other functions as well as subscription to the E-List are explained in the site. This E-List (Support Forum) is the first step in the establishment of a Greenstone Support Organization for India (GSOI). To this end, the CDDL is coordinating the development of a network of Greenstone users and a feasibility study on GSOI under the supervision of an Advisory Committee (names given in the site). Our profound thanks to the Greenstone team at Waikato, UNESCO, Greenstone Experts and Advisors from India for their wholehearted support and encouragement in this regard.
