I've had a couple queries lately about how to access the old postings of
this listserver. This prompted me to review the progress made over the last
6-8 months on putting our postings on a WWW site done by Shanti and Sally
Smith our DSR Webmistresses. (And yes, they're family - who else could I
get to contribute the hours?)
The WWW address is: http://www.catalog.com/dsr/afcin.htm
Anyhow, I am happy to announce to the world that the information of our
listserver's last year or two is now available in a format that is really
quite accessible. We didn't edit anyone's postings, but sorted them into an
order and grouping that is fairly clear and organized I think. A lot of
postings were left out as they were related to specific events that we
didn't feel was worth the costs to keep for posterity... If there is any
posting in the collection that you feel needs modification, please let me
know and I'll change it, or anything you would like to add or subtract -
whatever - we can do it.
We've divided the postings up into sections on:
Journals, newsletters and magazines
Festivals and conferences
FESPACO
Related listservers
WWW sites
Cinema halls in Africa
University programs on African film schools
Other resources
Specific African films
African film makers
Misc
Also there is several links to other WWW sites, and other press releases
there, and all the information about DSR's films and, of course, our
computers for sale (computers pay for the WWW site...)
I would welcome any feedback on the information presented.
regards,
