There are several old articles of mine on that site, but the email

links are around 6 years out of date. I have asked Michel Van Hove

at least three times over the years to amend the links, but it has

not happened. I even offered to change the coding myself so all they

had to do was to upload the page. Latest request sent yesterday.

 

Anyone wanting the full articles and my correct email (not this

groups one), would be better visiting my own website. All the

articles are now downloadable in zip files so you can read them off

line, and there are many more than featured on AGORA.

Hi Marin and Christine,

 

I could not reply because I was just on a trip to Belgium last days, I'm

just back this afternoon,

was trapped in a hughe thunderstorm in Paris yesterday afternoon, it

took me 3 hours to get through Paris...

I'm just verifying my email now. I'm quit busy with my business and with

the workshops I give here.

 

The Agora pages started with many volonteers...most vanished with the

months or years.

Computers crash sometimes, webpages change from one server to

another...it's quit some work...

Websites are sometimes renewed, sometimes old files are put bach instead

of the latest versions...

I went to all that last years.

 

The Agora pages are completely volonteer's work, made by different

engaged people.

There is more on the agora webpages than Martin's articles, I would love

to update them and add new articles,

some help would be really appreciated, I also have my daily work here.

I'm just the initiator of that project, I could never have done it alone.

I'm still proud that thousands of people learned something through this

free information pages, that was the initial

intention anyway.

You should also know that I host the initial page, but not the links

page, that's another volonteer's work, and she

still keeps that page running, paying for the web space as I do for the

pages I host on my websites.

 

I remember questions from you Martin, and thought that the links were

updated on the main article pages on time ,

as requested, I did not knew of the ones left, you did not verified them?

Six years seems long to me, as you write on this forum, and that sounds

quit negative, I'm almost five years in France now,

it took me more than 3 years to have a fast internet connection again (

I had to drop France Telecom, keep my GSM's and

take a satelite sender/receiver to be able to work again).

 

Martin, I'll remove your articles from the Agora pages I keep and ask

the owner of the link pages to do so if you

prefer not be on them anymore. I would regrett it, because I always

intended to have different viewpoints on them...

 

Anyone who would like to help with the Agora pages can mail me

(michel),

I think of translations in other languages, new items etc...

A project I started in februari 2005 can be found on

http://www.nature-helps.com/oils

It's the beginning of an essential oils database with real analyses and

fact about essential oils (image of the color of the oils,

density, solubility etc...), I received no help for it and am hesitating

to join it on agora or to make restrict it to people who add at least

something to improve it (a analyse, an image of some herbs or oils...).

 

That's all for now, I need to rest a while from my trip,

 

regards,

Hi Martin . . . Rob and I run a closed mailing list on which the

authors/hosts for AGORA discuss projects, updates, etc. I admit we haven't

had a lot of activity, as Michel says we all have gotten busy. I will

forward this post to the list so that those who are hosting your pages can

communicate with you to update them.

 

Michel, there are about 48 current members . . . If you want to communicate

the need for volunteer efforts to get energized again.

 

Be well,

Hi Michel,

 

This is a reply to an old message ... (we all get so darn busy ;)

 

I can surely say that I know of at least a few people here including

myself that would be willing to help you work on AGORA including getting

the links on the pages updated, submit some new articles and try to

contact folks who had articles up but the pages went " poof " ...

 

Just put out the good word and things can get rolling :)

For those of you who wish to work on AGORA, Rob and I have run an AGORA

mailing list to coordinate the work since its inception. You will notice

that the papers are hosted on various websites around the globe, not just

Michel's, although the original creative idea certainly sprung from his

wonderful, generous self . . . it is a global community effort. To submit

your intent or questions and to find out more about how it all works, send

an email to AGORA with the word " " in the subject

line, sans the quotes. Inactive members who have changed their email

addresses should re if they wish to get active again. The index

is run by Suki and she recently cleaned up some of the links, but old papers

need to be updated, etc. People already involved will volunteer to host new

pages if you don't have a website, but have something to contribute, and

help you develop ideas for papers if you need help. Papers are usually

peer-reviewed and critiqued there, which maintains the quality of

submittals. There has been little activity over the past year and we all

would welcome help and support.

 

Be well,
