WANTED: Proposals for the Future of the Warp Pharmacy.
A rather sad anniversary of sorts is approaching - 1 year since the Warp
Pharmacy was last updated (sob, sob, boo, hiss)! It is time, way past time, to
find it a new home. For this reason, I am calling for expressions of interest
from people or groups who would like to inherit the task of maintaining it.
If you have a proposal that you would like me to consider, please send me an
e-mail. I'd like to know answers to some or all of the following questions.
The questions are not intended to suggest particular answers.
o how much time you would be prepared to invest per week or month
to maintain it?
o what kind of bandwidth does your web server support ?
o would you charge for the service or use it to earn advertising
revenue ?
o would you require use of the term "Warp Pharmacy" and the existing
HTML source ? Would such use have to be exclusive?
o would you support mirroring to other sites ?
o would you be prepared to add an online editing, indexing and review
interface (either CGI, Java or Domino based) ?
o would you have any plans that make your proposal particularly
"interesting" (technologically speaking)?
To all the people who have contributed to the Warp Pharmacy in the past and to
the many, many people who have found it useful - thanks for your support and
sorry for not updating it in the last year.
jon seymour.
