{groups} Re: [HPFGU-Catalogue] Project development/ weekend access to site

[Paul Kippes]

I'll be out of town.  I have a fear about leaving my computer on for
extended periods when I'll be hundreds of miles away.

The only backup solution I could come up with was to save the
categories (vertical) into an Excel spreadsheet.  Then with post
numbers across the top, people would just mark off the category's of
the various posts.  Once I get back, all the data would need to be
entered.  (Could be automatic, but I wasn't thinking low-tech.)

Or we could just call it a vacation for everyone!
