This is to announce that we intend to try to build a new archive for the EPANET users-list. Our EPANET users-list is one of the most important sources of information and knowledge about the EPANET program and, for that matter, about water distribution networks modeling. If this information is not readily accessible it may as well be lost! <\/p>\n
The plan is to archive only posts whose authors so agree. Authors’ email addresses will not be published, to avoid possible spam.<\/p>\n
The trial EPANET users-list archive will be hosted at the www.water-simulation.com\/wsp web site. This site has no commercial aspects and is registered to Elad Salomons. Elad has assumed responsibility for updating and maintaining the archive and has agreed to pay for all of the web site fees (registration and hosting). To try to cover some of the expenses of the site the AdSense program with Google may be used. In short, Google displays a few ads on the site that relate to the content published (https:\/\/www.google.com\/adsense\/). I will keep a careful handle on the scope and nature of the ads. Elad will report the costs to me.<\/p>\n
Elad will himself build the archive using a free forum tool like the phpBB or punBB. These forum systems can be locked so no one but the owners can add messages. He will start with the 2005 messages and keep updating them as time goes. At the same time past years’ archives will be built. <\/p>\n
This email announces our intentions to open the archive in a few days. If you wish your postings to NOT be published in the archive, please send a message to epanet-archive at water-simulation.com. Once you have asked that your messages not be included, you don\u05d2\u20ac\u2122t need to send further such messages. In the next few days Elad will build the archive for 2005 and make it public.<\/p>\n
Please understand that I view this as a trial. As it develops, I would appreciate your comments, if any, off-line, in order to avoid a major digression off-topic.<\/p>\n
Thanks and best regards, <\/p>\n
Bill James
