Dear friends,
I please keep the discussions going. I’ll be tied up most of the rest of the week, but I’ll check in occasionally. I’ll be meeting Michael Behe, Kurt Wise, Gordon Wilson, Tim Brophie, David DeWitt, Paul Nelson, etc. etc. this week…There is the big Discovery Institute event today in DC, and the Baraminology Study Group (BSG) tomorrow in Lynchburg, Va and more activity for me in Tunica Mississipi this weekend….so I’ll hope you’ll excuse my sporadic participation until next week.
We are getting offers from authors and contributors. I will also seek top talent from both sides to offer articles. I’d like to thank everyone for their participation, especially the adminstrators who are helping rebuild the website, weblog, and discussion forum.
That sounds very exciting, Salvador! I’m looking forward to hearing from those you’re working with to start contributing. It will also be interesting to hear of your experiences at the events.
I’m hoping we can have the forum ready for prime time pretty soon. The aesthetic aspects are almost there; Rick has done some further work on it in the last day or two. We still need to get the user database sync’d with the blog user database. After that’s done, I will work on manually transferring the existing forum posts (of which there aren’t many yet) from the existing forum to the new one.
It would be cool if the new forum is ready to roll by the time your guest contributors start contributing.
The person who runs the Baraminology blog has some updates on what’s going on at the BSG conference:

(Sorry, I’d link to the specific topics, but it doesn’t appear that they have the site set up where you can link to individual posts).
I hope they record the sessions and make them available online via mp3 downloads or video streaming, etc. Lacking time to read much these days, I’ve really been eating up audio lectures, interviews, audio books, etc., that I can listen to while driving, doing yard work, etc.

You can link to individual posts. I’ve altered the template so that the link is more obvious (it used to be the # mark at the end of the post, now it says “Permanent Link”).
Here are my BSG conference posts:

I still haven’t gotten a Day 3 report — hopefully Jean will find the time to write me one!
johnnyb,
I so sorry for the delay in getting your comment out of the spam buffer. I keep forgetting I need to clear it out periodically.
Salvador
