Fwd: [RNLD] Genealogy software

[Ruth Singer]

Hi Margaret,

MPI-PSY's language archive has a new software KinOath which looks like
it could be quite good. I know that Joe Blythe has been consulted in
its development, and that it should be suitable for Australian
Aboriginal kinship.
Haven't actually set it up yet, but am hoping that when Joe Blythe
gets to Melbourne we can organise a training session.

Ruth
