Hey Caroline,

I am up for that volunteer task. One problem though, i never really got down with the OpenACS look and feel...
So if you provide me with some material and guidance, you've got yourself a volunteer :)

Thanks Al-Faisal,

I see you've already been working on the book.

I suggest the following.
Go ahead and set up an outline in the wiki and read over what we have in acs-templating.

https://openacs.org/doc/acs-templating/
https://openacs.org/doc/acs-templating/guide/master.html

With that knowlege you should be able to start discecting the default, site, and blank and dotlrn masters that come out of the box. Feel free to ask questions and ask for comments as you work here, or by email. Daveb is usually on #openacs, can you use irc? I think Malte mentioned its blocked in Jordan. I'll also email you our AIMs.

Great.. i'll get started.

Also, we do have IRC in jordan, and i sometimes do pop up on the OpenACS channel (I bugged Dave the other day with some PDF conversion stuff 😊 )...

One thing though, Here in Jordan we are GMT+2. So what is the time difference between us? because if you are in the United States, then we need to pre-arrange sessions to talk with each other, since the time difference would start at 7 hours (Amman-New York time difference), and i usually disconnect at about 9 PM GMT.
