	Thanks Courtney. Yep, Slilent_One - I'd kind of factored in that time difference in my thinking although forgot to include that above, Sorry. Going senile. (By the way what's your weather like? Ours is till very changeable.) ******* At present, the following people would like to be involved: Maggy - who this week is available between 12am and 5pm board time. JediAlly - who until January is available pretty much any time. Jek Whitey - who can be on-line in the evening Destiny - who will try to be here at the time we agree on. Courtney Solo - who is usually available before 4pm. Thrawn Yoda - who is usually around between late afternoon and early morning. Slilent_One TSF JDH3 - although more as a supporter as he has a lot of demands on his time. And me. So how's this for a suggestion? On Tuesday (Dec 20th) - which is Wednesday for Slilent_One and moi - I'll make sure to be on-line at 2pm board time. Whoever is available then can come to this thread and we'll have a chat about things we can do and who wants to do them. I think that time will suit Thrawn and Mags as well as Courtney, JA and possibly Destiny and Jek. Then we'll take a break and I'll log in again at 8pm board time - which might suit Yoda, Whitey, TSF, JD and Slilent_One (I think that'd be about 1-2pm Oz time). And we'll chat some more (hopefully over a nice Churban Brandy.) If that sounds like a plan, we'll go ahead. Obviously - anyone can post ideas, or offer to take on a job at any stage in between or after those times. Things to think about: how do we want to run the A/T resource thread - ie. what do want it to do? do we want a kind of monthly format with regular features - eg. one interview a month (of either a writer or a reader), a couple of reviews, a kind of "what's happening in my A/T fic/s" update from all the writers. and a few little snippets about whatever tickles a contributor's fancy - eg. a review of a profic book, any kind of research article on A/T eg. a timeline, a bit of humour, etc etc. do we want specific people to be in charge of certain things, or do we want 2-3 people to take responsibility for each area and work as a team? do we want Anakin back? er . . . silly question what would YOU like the thread to do? Original ideas welcome. how can we utilise some of our talented artists? eg. a cover art service for A/T writers? do we want a kind of overseer who coordinates everyone? do we want a fairly structured format - ie. (assuming a four week cycle) week one - interview; week two - review etc., or do we want it to fly casual? *do we want challenges? Remember we also have the ATindex as the repository of links to A/T stories old and new. Which reminds me - Yoda, are you still okay about doing that? And if so, do you need a helper? That's probably enough to get started. -----signature----- "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven." Ecclesiastes 3:1 Master to THE_PIED_PIPER

	i am in sri lanka for christmass and things r getting busy here so i'll do my best to be online. also i have herd that the JC is movine to a new server or some such and that the old thread links will no longer work. This may cause somewhat of a headache regurding the A/T index.. or ne index for that matter. A fully structured approach would be nice but given everyones time constraints i dont think it would work very well in the long run. I personally think we would better of settleing for a loose structure which allows more flexibility. As for the resource thread... i think it would be better left as a meeting ground for A/T authors (and readers of course) to discuss ideas and the like. thats my 2 cents.. -----signature----- Anakin(alive)/Tahiri(not-half-vong) 4EVA!!!!!

	That's a great idea Mags. And thanks for the input S_One. It's busy where you are? It's getting that way here, too. I'm avoiding town like the plague as I hate shopping, but I'll have to make one more trip in the next few days. Cool - thanks Thrawn and JA. Another point to consider, guys, is the Scrapbook thread. We closed that down last year, but it could be unlocked if we wanted to use it again. For a while there we used that thread for challenges, so there's another idea to throw into the pot. C ya soon. -----signature----- "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven." Ecclesiastes 3:1 Master to THE_PIED_PIPER

	Yes it could work well, and ideally - if enough people were involved - it wouldn't be too much work.

	It could be a lot of fun. Did you manage to look at other resource threads, Mags? I know quite a few run challenges. At the moment we have this thread - which is our resource thread; the ATindex for story links and also we could if necessary unlock the scrapbook thread and use it again. Personally I'd like to turn this thread into a magazine type thingy so we could have not just writers but readers involved. After all - where would we be without readers? Here's the list I posted on page 4 for reference. Maybe we could start working through the points - but feel free to bring up anything at any time. Things to think about: how do we want to run the A/T resource thread - ie. what do want it to do? do we want a kind of monthly format with regular features - eg. one interview a month (of either a writer or a reader), a couple of reviews, a kind of "what's happening in my A/T fic/s" update from all the writers. and a few little snippets about whatever tickles a contributor's fancy - eg. a review of a profic book, any kind of research article on A/T eg. a timeline, a bit of humour, etc etc. do we want specific people to be in charge of certain things, or do we want 2-3 people to take responsibility for each area and work as a team? do we want Anakin back? er . . . silly question what would YOU like the thread to do?

	I wondered if one idea would be to have a group responsible for interviews and reviews, and another group responsible for "features" which could be anything they want - so this would suit people who'd like to be a bit creative. This group could involve any artists. That way - if people think of good ideas along the way, they have the leeway to try them out. -----signature----- "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven."

	sure I looked them up. mostly there are a resource thread and a index thread. Yes they nearly all run challanges, some just for fun others with winners in the end think we should melt the resource and the scrapbook together (yes I also took a look on it) yes it should become a place where readers and authors could met outside the storythread I tend for a monthly update with news, stories, reviews whatever hands Ewok a cookiee and I am still no mind reader -----signature----- The Revenant - http://boards.theforce.net/a/b10477/28313064 - co authored with Jedi Ant "Maggy rawks " - YodaKenbi Proud Recipient of the Golden Elegos™
