Yes.[/QUOTE]
You're probably right Comarch, but my concern, when this topic was brought up some time ago, was how on earth you cost into a project community involvement given how amorphous its definition is? Of course, at the time I was shouted down as if I was some sort of mean and precious archaeologist worrying about the public poking their noses in, which really wasn't what I was getting at. Again, this is surely the sort of thing an educational charity should be dealing with in its sleep!
