[Oe List ...] Repository note

[Len Hockley]

Colleagues,

At last count, 68 of us have both visited the site and registered on it. 
Among us, we come from eight different countries. Many more, I am sure have 
visited without registering.

Several of you have left words of greeting and current photos of yourselves 
for us on the personal page created for you when you register; much 
appreciated!

Some of the variety of materials that are now presented on the Repository are:

1.      Photos from our consults and human development projects
2.      Shots of us as we showed up at the 2000 reunion in Vail
3.      Corporate rituals, lectures, and symbols,
4.      Audio clips of Slicker and Matthews,
5.      Brian Stanfield's timeline and memorial pages,
6.      Stories (some of them pretty funny),
7.      Songs (including audio of us singing),
8.      Old assignment sheets,
9.      Beret Griffith's marvelous chronology of our history,
10.     Memorials,
11.     Witnesses,
12.     Poetry,
13.     Office location listings from our most expansive phase,
14.     An interactive global grid,
15.     Newspaper clippings,
16.     Article reprints

You get the idea. Many thanks to all of you who have contributed to the 
site during these first two months of its life!

Even with that list, we've obviously only scratched the surface of the 
things we can share from our history. More important, we've only begun the 
attempt to articulate the profound aspects of our legacy, the impact it's 
had on us and others and the relevance it may yet have for the future.

In this respect, I hope all of you have had a chance to read the witness 
(though he might not use that word) of the current ICA USA Board Chair, 
Richard Wilkinson (if you haven't, here's the link: 
http://twiki.wedgeblade.net/bin/view.cgi/Main/WhatBecoming).

For those of you who find this venture of some value, we invite your 
thoughts on what you'd like to see on the Repository and your suggestions 
for how we might do that, as well as ideas on how we might make it easier 
to use

I am sure that there are a number of you that have some items that you 
would like to see saved here for posterity but find the system just too 
complicated to learn.  For you we offer help.  Just drop us a line:
