Hi All,

I'm in love with your website.

I'm trying to help launch a national collaborative project for the poor, misunderstood, underfunded tech folks at zoos and botanical gardens across the country. We're trying to build a GIS "data model" so that each zoo and garden doesn't have to start from scratch when they want to map their plants, their paths, their irrigation systems, etc. Here's an example <http://support.esri.com/index.cfm?fa=downloads.datamodels.gateway> from other industries.

We need a web presence and project wiki to help us communicate.

Would you mind terribly if I used your beautiful Fedora website as a template?-- it's so elegant, content-rich, easy to understand.

If the answer is "yes", then you become an official "professional services" volunteer for our new alliance. Maybe there's a tax deduction in there somewhere? Our partners, right now, are the San Diego Zoo and Wild Animal Park, the Chicago Botanical Garden, the Missouri Botanical Garden, San Francisco Zoo, San Francisco State, the Arnold Arboretum at Harvard University, and UC Davis. We have about 100 gardens interested in getting this free, open source data model. Now all we have to do is build it. Communicate.

Thank you for thinking it over. It would be a great help!
