Subject: Anniversary<br><br>Folks,<br><br>This is for those of you who have acted as facilitators for the anniversary project (<a href="http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/">lowlands-l.net/anniversary/</a>) and for those of you who still aspire to so lofty a status.
<br><br>I would like to add a few more pages featuring guest contributors. (Those are people that helped with the project without being Lowlands-L members.) If among those you kindly brought (or will still bring) to the table there are any that you think are especially interesting, enthusiastic and amenable, please by all means invite them to submit a brief introductory blurb each, along with a photo of them.
<br><br>The intro should be brief and should contain something about them, their area, language and/or culture. But the style can be chosen by them and you. It may be in any language, though it would be nice to have at least an English version with it (which doesn't need to be an exact translation).
<br><br>You need to tell those people that they are not expected to be experts of anything or intellectuals.<br><br>Here are existing feature blurbs:<br><a href="http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/feature_nina-en.php">lowlands-l.net/anniversary/feature_nina-en.php
</a><br><a href="http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/feature_dante.php">lowlands-l.net/anniversary/feature_dante.php</a><br><br>By the way, such features and the includsion of non-Lowlands language translations seem to be having the desired effect. They entice people that otherwise might not have cared, and indirectly this leads them to acquaint themselves with our focus. I know for certain that three people joined us because of this.
<br><br>Thanks for keeping at it!<br><br>Reinhard/Ron<br><br><br></span>
