seminar postponed

[Jacky Foo]

To Participants of the Internet Seminar "Towards more sustainable
livelihoods"

I am sorry to inform you that the seminar will be postponed until
further notice.
(It is probably that we will have it in May)

The postponement is because noone has volunteered to act as a
chairperson to facilitate and moderate the discussion. I am unable to
do it since I will be offline due to my forthcoming travel to Kenya.

The call for chairperson(s) is still valid. Please contact me at
jack...@gmail.com

regards
jacky

Dear Participants

As moderator of this 2-week e-seminar, I like to welcome all of you
(participants) to the Internet Seminar and will look forward to
interactions with Mr. Jackson Ntapi Nk and Mr. Henry Ngew Njakoi who

I take this opportunity to welcome Mr. Henry Ngew Njakoi (Country

(also at Heifer International Cameroon). Jackson has been my contact
person in the planning of the seminar and will be the person
responding to your questions and providing further comments on the
work done in Cameroon about Heifer International's promoting on
activities for the integration of animals in local farming systems and
its "Pass On the Gift" program that have been successfully with
household farms in West Cameroon.

Hi Jacky,

I could not enter the drupal with the pass word i received and thus cannot get into the pre-seminar introduction of participants. It is important to me as i strongly believe that some information about the participants can help me orientate my answers to their specific context e.g somebody asked a question about conflicts that may occur as a result of muslims not tolerating pigs, if i knew where he is resident i may like to place some emphasis on Muslim christian relationships in cameroon. Please i am waiting for your suggestions to solve this problem.

(i) I have given you "manager" status for this google group (iobb-seminar02). This will allow you to look at the 19 names and email address in its members list.  

goto http://groups.google.com/group/iobb-sem02/members
and you will find at the bottom of the display your manager's access to:
Edit member list and member permissions >

(ii) as for IOBB DRUPAL, there is no member list for a forum. http://www.iobbnet.org/drupal/forum/150 is basically a peer forum for the seminar so that participants can have a choice in th euse of forum softwares. I prefer IOBB DRUPAL because of the image facility in using thumbnails. IOBB DRUPAL provides a profile space or directory of people to anyone who has a user account. Yours (Jackson Ntapi) is in http://www.iobbnet.org/drupal/user/view/2392 .  Google Groups also have a profile space for its users.

For participants who do not have a user acocunt in gmail.com or IOBB DRUPAL, it is especially important for these participants to introduce themselves. 


(iii) >I could not enter the drupal with the pass word i received

>and thus cannot get into the pre-seminar introduction of participants.

try to request for a new password. 

As for the viewing the self-introduction of participants, all materials in IOBB DRUPAL is in the public domain and can also be viewed without a user acocount. User accounts are only needed for people who wish to write. 
Try again : http://www.iobbnet.org/drupal/forum/150

I hope this helps.

I cant figure out why ??

Manoj C has the same status (manager)  and maybe he could comment if he has any problems. 

Meanwhile I will send you the list of participants in iobb-seminar02 by email to you.
