Airflow May 2008 - New Airflow System

The new Airflow

Airflow editions have been somewhat sporadic as Amanda and Scott have had a busier family life; so we finally decided to write a brand new system. You have already had the privilege of seeing the first version (last issue), and apart from a few hiccups, the transition has been fairly smooth.

The new service allows us to have multiple editors (yes, even you could be an editor!) by doing it all online. It is also much simpler and faster to use.

Yet more computers

The club computers are slowing being replaced, repaired and serviced. There is a new computer upstairs and to shake things up a bit, it is a Mac OS X box. This winter the Log Computer is being upgraded in both looks and function. Some of the improvements planned will provide easy access to downloading logs, which should encourage uploading logs locally and on the online competitions. If you have ideas or want to participate, please start by looking at our Wiki page http://www.glidingclub.org.au/wiki/Log_Computer

The roster

Do you have some time to help the club but can only work at home? We need some help maintaining the roster. It should only be a small amount of work and can be done at home with an internet connection. If you have ideas or can help please contact Scott Penrose at scottp@dd.com.au
