What should we do with DAPFI…

[Scott G]

… if anything?

We started this movement a few years ago and it never really took hold, primarily due to the stand alone success of DAPnet. …which is a GREAT thing!

Everything, thread-wise, contained within it’s archives is relevant to our forestry discussions and direction in DAPnet. I question, however, the real possibility, real or perceived, of duplication (if not just downright confusion) for forum members.

Given that DAPFI really doesn’t exist outside the realm of DAPnet, I would suggest that the forum be restructured to drop DAPFI and incorporate relevant posts into the ‘normal’ DAPnet forestry section.

My thoughts…

I agree Scott.

I also think that those of us working to build cohesion between draft animal powered forestry operations will continue. Eventually we may have a stand alone structure, though not exclusive of DAPNet, just more specific to the needs of that association (small “a”).

We do not need to take up formal space on this forum. Especially since I think much of that discussion was in a private forum, and it would be good to enliven those threads by moving them to open categories.

So in absence of any additional forthcoming comments from other members, where do we take it from here? Administrator or …?

Yes. Bid a respectful farewell to DAPFI and incorporate relevant posts in DAPnet.

Yes any of the administrators can move those posts into the sustainable forestry category, and deactivate the DAPFI forum.

Helloooo Admin… Are you following this?

[dominiquer60]

Scott,

The current administrators are working on a new website design that will include all of the many years worth of discussion here. I am assuming that it makes greater sense to do these changes all at once, there are some other outdated parts of the forum as well that could be altered and updated, while again preserving the discussion. Patience friend, change is a brewing 🙂

[Scott G]

Perfect, Erika! Thanks! 🙂
