From steved@ncatark.uark.edu Sun May 24 14:20:11 1998 Date: Tue, 19 May 1998 10:05:50 +0000 From: Steve Diver To: permaculture@envirolink.org Subject: Permaculture FAQ update The Permaculture FAQ has just been greatly revised and updated, however the title and url location has changed. Old locations: http://sunsite.unc.edu/london/permaculture/faq.v1.3 http://csf.colorado.edu/perma/faq1.3.html New location: Introduction to Permaculture: Concepts and Resources (May 1998) http://www.attra.org/attra-pub/perma.html The PC FAQ Story: The Permaculture FAQ grew out of the author's efforts to include permaculture education in his work as a sustainable ag farm advisor at ATTRA, the national sustainable farming information center located at the University of Arkansas. Larry London and Lee Barnes on the old permaculture-mg mailing list suggested I reformat some of the material I'd already compiled and publish it as a FAQ. In 1995, the author published The Permaculture FAQ 1.0 in September of 1995. The FAQ was written as an information leaflet rather than a series of "Frequently Asked Questions." Two updates in the FAQ series followed. Larry London at Sunsite and Michael Yount at Communications for a Sustainable Future maintained the FAQ in text and html formats. The switch to the ATTRA web site will enable the author to make regular updates and address corrections. The publication is available from ATTRA as both a print publication as well as a web publication. The title was altered to serve both print and web versions, and because many people associate FAQ's with a series of questions rather than a fact sheet format. Take a look at the new version on the ATTRA web site at http://www.attra.org/attra-pub/perma.html and let me know if you have any comments or suggestions.
