We are very, very Excited

We are very, very excited. After waiting about two-and-a-half years (which included a number of attempts), a significant number of the items from our Collection are up on CAN.

To see them, just go to the Search Screen, type in "Gippstown" (but without the "talkies") and you can go through them. Don't forget to click on the link to see more details of an item in which you have an interest.

There have been just a few teething problems, where some of our images do not show up (but we can solve that with time), and some come up a number of times, page after page.

But overall, it is really wonderful.

Many, many thanks to Ingrid Mason from CAN and her anonymous XML wizard.

Part of the problem was that we were unsure how to provide an InMagic input for CAN - now solved and we are hopeful the next batch will be up there much sooner.

Thanks Ingrid!
