There will be a formal decision on this point for the next General Assembly. In the meantime, members and non-members are all welcome to join the working group.
But if someone cares enough about EBT to join the WG, then I am confident that this person will understand the importance to join also the association.
that last sentence is my viewpoint.

Actually the Web Dev WG is already fully operational. So far there has been no sign of life from 5 of its 6 members though...

I'm overwhelmed by either work or entering lots of notes right now, but in one to two weeks I'll try to look alive.

So far, I haven't even gotten around to the I.P.-transfer...

During the 1st GA we talked about Irish users who don't use their Site and Euro-tracking Discussion in English because it is used by the whole community to talk about everything related with EBT. And we talked about the new entry of Slovakia and to give prominence to translation of site in Slovak as well. So, what about to translate it in Irish too, as this is also an official language of European Union? Perhaps you have adjust tried to do so, and I know that there isn't an Irish Board Member, but if someone knows an Irish user (or have an Irish friend) who can help us, I think it helps the site to have high visibility.

I've just finished to watch b100w11 and jenny&me video on YouTube. So, waiting for the Press Section updating, what about to collect all videos regarding EBT in one user (or channel)?

Similar for me... I just have moved and I'm still unable to print and scan but guess that all necessary hardware will come back to life next week

In Italian Board some users ask to contact inactive users if they haven't entered a note after one month from their account creation date. If they don't answer after X days, it's better to delete their account. What do you think about this action?

I don't agree because in this case a lot of hits will be deleted and I don't understand why we should do that.

I think they were speaking about users with Zero notes, not the inactive users.

May be this can also be discussed in the WG database. We'll start up within the next weeks.
I'll open up a special section for this group and I'll contact the intersted members by mail...

The idea is not only to remove people waiting at zero after the date of enrollment, but to discover (with a newsletter that will entice the "zeronote-users") if by chance any of them, having maintained the same email address ,is willing to reassess the idea to participate in our wonderful project.

Indeed;
That's why I see this working group focus on the different aspects of the database.
The suspicious users is one of them, but the problem of clearing the databse of not-active, zero (or 1 or 2 notes) after a certain period is also an issue to tackle and another very important one is to keep the database alive... How to reactivate non-active users?
But the special topic has to be created first...
Can one of the moderators organize this for me???
