Wayfinder

[Paul Humphreys]

I have been asked to post this.


There have been considerable discussions and much confusion regarding the recent changes to Wayfinder. CRAG has been accused of directly or indirectly causing or influencing these changes.
CRAG wishes to refute these accusations and in order to clarify CRAG's position, the following statement has been made.

CRAG has not influenced Wayfinder in any way.
CRAG understands and accepts that Wayfinder's copyright and URL is the property of Ian Boddison.
The data contained within Wayfinder is the property of those who have contributed that data only.
CRAG makes no claim on Wayfinder but agrees that within the confines of the original agreement made between Ian Boddision, GLASS and the TRF, CRAG meets the criterion to become a Web Enabled Body (WEB) and accepts this responsibility.
CRAG's intention is that all who use Rights of Way should enjoy access to as much information about countryside access as possible and will gladly work with others who share the same view.

I am left not using either wayfinder site, so as far as this foul affair is concerned whatever parties involved for whatever reason... from me you all get a big :*****: emoticon

Hi Dave
is the short and curlies of the above that CRAG are now maintaining the "original" wayfinder site as a WEB
and if this is the case, is it because GLASS/TRF did not want to share?

AFAIC this is a very big problem and needs sorting out,

simple spoken men like simple spoken words.
and I haven't seen many simple statments from anyone on this subject for a while:confused:

we should all be pulling/pushing towards the same objective.

right off to GLASS site, haven't been for a couple of days.;)

I (Paul) posted it on behalf of Dave as he dose not use the forums.

www.way-finder.co.uk (http://www.way-finder.co.uk) is looked after by Ian Boddinson (who owns the copy right) and the WMT. It has nothing to do with CRAG. I know Ian and the WMT are doing a lot of talking and things are moving in a good way. But that is all I know.

www.wayfinderproject.co.uk (http://www.wayfinderproject.co.uk) is looked after the WMT and Ian, Ian has his name on both sits as the copyright owner.

But I do not have all the facts. I may never have them, but I for one would like only one site for all to use.

Anything else anyone wants to know please email Ian ian@boddison.com or the WMT admin@wayfinderproject.co.uk
