1. NEWS FOR NZERN MEMBERS
The designs for the 40 types of new web pages are now available to look at. http://www.bush.org.nz The members who helped redesign the pages were Sheryll Ashton (Bush Telly), Dave Evans (Travis Wetland Trust/ERIS), Denise Ford (Travis Wetland Trust/ERIS), Steve Hume (Wai-ora Forest Landscapes), Simon Johnson (Habitat Restoration Services), Di Lucas (Lucas Associates), Ken Mason (Dunedin Forest & Bird), Colin Meurk (Landcare Research), Paul Michael (Fern Factor), Mike Peters (Addington Bush Society/ERIS), Tracy Peters (Addington Bush Society), Shelly Washington (ECAN), Ryan Young (Canterbury Botanical Society). 14,000 new pages will be automatically created over a two week period and then randomly checked. There will be a change-over-date when all the new pages appear. A lot of new information will appear for the first time. Phone Mike Peters 03-980-0902 during office hours for more information. The Wekanui pretend website will be added this week which will illustrate how these pages will interconnect. 11/03/2008
