SUGGESTED PROJECTS
Active projects have the name of the co-ordinator attached as an e-mail
link or are high lighted in red. If you want
to coordinate one of these or start one not listed here, please contact
Don Hayward to have the project included on the list. We are eager to discuss
approaches and methods for projects, and always happy to just chat. Anyone
wishing to become involved in an active project should contact its co-ordinator.
On the main page we have listed links to other active projects in the area.
