-/08/12 13:05: Good idea Sarah regarding Twitter.  I will give the facilitators access to the Twitter account.  I'm sending you the access details.  The target now is to get more committed project associates by September 3rd, and I would like decent palaeographers.  They don't have to be great, but we already have five year thirteens (four Westminster sschool students plus one London Oratory student (TBC) starting palaeography from scratch.  That being said we have a number of experienced palaeographers amongst associates who have signed up, including Gordon o'Sullivan and Karen Gunnell, a part time archivist at the National maritime Museum (TBC)  (Colin)

If we got more followers, we could reach a much wider audience and attract more attention (I'm occasionally running @mediaevum, which has 682 followers)
