Peter Bowers

Director & System Administrator, Center for Christian Leadership (CCL), Tirana, Albania
Administrator of wiki at http://www.ccl-al.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php and http://www.qdk.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php

The CCL serves in Albania, a nation with a very low income per capita. Students are able to pay only about 10% of the actual cost of their education (many of them cannot pay even that and can only come when scholarships are available) while the remainder is covered by donations. All contributions I've made to the pmwiki community are purely gratis and I'm not trying to pressure anybody into giving, but if you would like to express appreciation in any way (small or large) I would be thrilled for you to donate to the CCL. The easiest way to do this is to go to here for general giving or here for giving via credit card. Just specify the project as for "CCL/Albania". Thanks! (If you are in the US all gifts are tax deductible.)

Ideas I'd like to implement:

  • Do a restore on multiple pages based on when they were vandalized (00790)
  • Implement a (small!) number of basic formulae that can be used to do calculations on a table
  • Work on the documentation of WikiForms.
    • Some time way in the future I've thought about a WikiForm2 recipe which would build on WikiForms but with the data structure definition separated from the form definition. Probably something similar to ViewTemplates but working for an edit form. Then some other improvements in selection in wikilist, etc.
