Indigenous Tweets and Neskie

[Kevin Scannell]

Hi everyone,

    As far as the name of the software, what I did was just keep
Neskie's original name for it: "secwepemc-facebook".  I think he would
have liked that.   But I'm definitely open to other suggestions - this
whole project is (to me) about paying respect to Neskie's memory.

   I'm in touch with some of his friends from Secwepemc Nation - I can
ask their opinion too.

Kevin
