CSC folks,
The time has come. CSC tracking webpage finally has an online
data registration form!
I have been trying to provide this service to make data submission
(and my life!) a little easier for months. A registration form
was actually designed and ready to implement nearly six months
ago. However, for some reasons, I could never get the form to
work at geocities.com. A few folks have helped me look into the
problem with no success until I posted the question to Tzu (ND
03/01). Magically, Tzu solved the problem, and hooray, we finally
have it!
While this online registration will make data submission easier,
I would still like to keep the tracking lists in a somewhat
"controlled and monitored" style (which has always been the case
since we started tracking). We don\'t want people to play around
giving whole bunch of junk data which never get updated. Some
representative samples provided by one or two responsible folks
daily are sufficiently enough for tracking purpose. Therefore,
until we find a better solution, for the time being, after you
submit the data form, please either
include a valid e-mail ID (data field provided in the form); or
re-post your data to one of the discussion boards.
Note that you must do one of the two options above for us to
include your entry. Also note that the old ways of data submission
is still fine with me. That is, you can still send me e-mail or
post your data on the discussion boards asking for inclusion.
CSC folks have been exceptionally responsible for updating their
records. We hope this good tradition continues irrespective of
the form.
Thanks so much to Tzu for an excellent contribution to CSC
tracking webpage. I have nothing to reward you, but you are
guaranteed a spot in our "honorable" list of tracking
emeritus when your case is approved.
Finally, Tzu has agreed to help us improve other aspects of
the webpage. I will be working with him in the coming months
to bring folks a better service. There is no promise in time.
As soon as some improvements are made, we will let you guys
know.
