h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

There's a couple of things that aren't set up yet..

Not Panicking Ltd is a company that owns h2g2, 1/3 of it is owned by the h2g2 community consortium. Given that we're currently a googlegroup (which can't own property, we're a google e mail list)... we are forming a not-for-profit-company called Field Researchers Ltd which will be able to own 1/3 of NPL. Once this is finalised every researcher will be able to join field researchers and have a say.

The Foundation is a charity to promote literacy which is in the process of being setup..

There will be more announcements on both of these soon.

hi

why is hootoo involved in a charity?

Good question, fkf. I'll make sure the answer is included in the pages we are writing about the Foundation.

oh

i was kinda hoping for something right now...

just a sentence or two?

i mean, if you guys already know enough about why youre doing a charity
surely you can tell us?

thanks

sorry didnt finish that thought

if you guys already know enough about why youre doing a charity TO ACTUALLY FORM A FOUNDATION then surely you could tell us briefly in a sentence or two?

actually
forget this whole thing

if it was easy to tell us you would have already

You are right, if it was easy, we would have.

I'm working on the wording of the help pages now. I know it's taking forever. My previous drafts were done mid-November and after that various things went a bit pear-shaped at home, and Christmas always seems to knock two weeks out of the year, so I'm just picking them up again now.

Thanks for being patient, fkf. If it's any comfort to you, all this delay is driving me mad too.

hey, really, pay me no never mind.
i was just being grouchy.

you all have been doing a bang up job!
true kudos all around!
and if hooking a charity to the whole endeavor
helps to ensure its success...
then i say hooray!!

yay!



sorry i can't be more help
you don't wanna know why

i mean that you don't want to know why i can't be more help

not that you don't want to know why i am sorry

oh
you say you do want to know why i am sorry?
i don't know.
oh wait.
now i am confused
oh well
bye

for fluffy, don't feel bad.

There will be information, but since I'm not at all up to date with anything about the charity, I can't help...

awww thanks
but have no fears, milla

im just funnin
