- Announcing a new service!!!
-
- WGIS - Winter Guard Information Service.
-
- I've created this so that information that might not be of interest to
- everyone on these groups can be accessed without the need to post it to
- news. I have gotten permission from WGI to reprint articles from their
- publications including FOCUS. These files are large so instead of
- posting them they will be available through this service. I am also in
- the process of obtaining schedules from as many of the local circuits
- around the country as possible. These will also be available and will be
- divided into regions.
- To use the service send email to: winter@sporty.col.oh.us
- with a subject line of : Request
-
- Then to access the different services include the following commands in
- the body of the message:
-
-
- Topic | include
- ----------------------------------------|-------------------------------
- begin request | :begin
- end request | :end
- current WGIS index | :index
- help using WGIS (not complete yet) | :help
- what states are included in each |
- region for contests & results | :regions
- contact addresses for circuits in |
- a specific region | :circon.[region]
- contact addresses for guards in |
- a specific region | :grdcon.[region]
- list of contest schedules I have and |
- what region each is in | :schlist
- contest schedules for circuits in |
- a specific region | :sch.[region]
- [region] can be: NE,E,S,MW,N,NW,SW,CN |
- Ohio Color Guard Circuit schedule | added to sch.mw
- Starting a winter guard? pub from WGI | :start
- Articles from WGI FOCUS - 10/92 | :foc1092
- ----------------------------------------|------------------------------
-
- Be sure to include a :begin before any other :<command> and a :end
- as the last command. The help text is not written yet because I've been
- waiting to see what kinds of pointers I need to include.
-
- I will be adding more issues of FOCUS, another publication from WGI
- titled "Creating a Color Guard", contest schedules, contest results (also
- by regions), a color guard FAQ and anything you would like to suggest.
-
- I am working on the FAQ now. If anyone has any suggestions, or would
- like something included please email them to me at the above address.
- Include Submittal in the subject line.
-
- Currently this system is manual so it may take a day or so to get the
- files back out to you. I am planning on automating it as soon as I can.
-
- If anyone has any suggestions or comments please let me know. I've
- cross posted this because it seems that there is still some disagreement
- in if wgi posts are going to go to r.a.m.m or r.a.m.d. After we
- decide where winter guard posts are going to go I will only post these messages
- to that group. I will repost this in two weeks.
-
- Thanks for the bandwidth.
