First of all,Thanks to James Sullivan for the work you did for GO::DH last year. The website is much, much better! It was very nice seeing you last week in Victoria. I meant to buy you a beer, but never found the chance. Next time!Dear Luis, thanks for your offer, but we need someone with web design and development skills to handle the wordpress site. The social media accounts are good right now.James C., that's a great idea! If we can only figure out how to find regular funds for GO::DH, like Dan suggests, that would be a great use of our money.In the meantime, I will be doing some work on the site (little-by-little). Anybody wants to help me, join in.a.On Fri, Jun 12, 2015 at 1:16 PM, Luis Rondon Paz <angel25djd@gmail.com> wrote:Hi James, I think i can colaborate with DH in SocialMEdia area, but in
