who to contact to be able to post to Google PHINMS User Commumity

[Christina Crawford]

I got an email from a PHINMS user that just joined the Google PHINMS User Community group. 
The person wants to post to the community but needs access.

I can't find who I originally sent an email to to get this the posting permission.  I am still looking through my old emails.

I couldn't find anything on this group either except for one that said to email Tom.  Tom (Preacherman) has retired and don't know if he still can do it.

It would be nice to put an entry into this Community Group on how to join and who to contact for posting permissions and if there are issues.

Thanks,

Christina

Christina,

I'm still here (:-). I should get this taken care of first thing tomorrow.

Meanwhile are there any "nominations" for a new (working 😊) admin(s) for this news group?

Cheers to all!

Tom

You? You retired?

[Preacher Man]

Yes.  Gleefully retired, but still "lurking".

Spending most of my time now building and/or restoring tube amplifiers.

To those of you who may want to post, please let me know.  I have added those permissions to a few obvious candidates, but only when they have mail delivery set.

Also I'll note that most of the links I posted in the past to my Phineas related projects are now broken, thanks to my "lifetime" web presence (and URLs) getting moved twice by hosts (sheesh).  But the GITHUB links are still good (AFAIKT) and have 95% of the information of interest.  If there are future requests I could probably get my web site moved to a new location.

Cheers to all!

Tom

Tom,

 

I'm willing to vet newcomers to this mailing list and add them as needed.

 

I was able to confirm just now that a user does not immediately gain the ability to post when they use Google's web interface and click 'Join'.

 

The About page for the group[1] says there is a category of users called 'members', which is authorized to post.  There is also a category called 'managers'.  I presume 'managers' can add people to the 'members' list, but that's not spelled out on the About page.

 

I presume too that users in the 'managers' category get notified whenever a new user clicks 'Join' and are given the option to add the newcomer to the 'members' category.

 

Anyway, like I said, I'm willing to perform those duties and even seek out another manager or two if ever there is a time that I lose interest in PHINMS and no other managers are active.

 

Cheers,

Perfect!  I'll set things up for you tomorrow and send you an update. I think you'll be a great choice to help "carry the torch".

Hi,

I am long time lurker 😊 I would love to contribute. I wrote the .net version for KY hie. If anyone needs help in that avenue, I could be of help.

Karu,

We're up to 7 group "owners" now (almost 10% of the users), so I think we may be OK in that respect.  I love to "lurk" as well, but this is one of the few places that I do post to.  Please feel free to jump in and add to or start discussions.

Us PHINMS folks are generally dealing with a whole host of health data related issues. A full blown HIE would be quite the project.  An outline of the architecture, functionality, client base size, and data rates would be interesting. In particular  would be a description of how you manage data brokering among divergent client (vendor) software.

To everyone else, please join Karu, post, and lets kick up more interest in PHINMS and health information in general.  

Cheers!

Tom
