Zak, Fre! Thanks for posting your thoughts on this page here. Actually, when designing the homepage we didn't really think about this, we thought that it was better to explain the purpose of the tool in order to make it easy for people to discover the content. What do you think could be added or changed? Thank you so much for taking the time! Keep on editing. =) (Maruayam 02:12, 16 September 2007 (BST))

Hello Guys!
Yes - I see your point. The reason why JBPedia didn't start with a lot of "CISV Content" is that there is nobody to look over, administer and guarantee quality of all of the CISV Content - making it impossible to be an official page. International Committees responsible for this area (web and content) did not have enough resources to do that now. However, it is, from start, a dream of the JBPedia (and experimental, JB-based project) to turn into a CISVPedia - that will help all CISV Chapter to develop.
This will only depend on how much we make this one work - let's make it happen!
Keep Rocking
ps - about what JB is about? that's on "JB Essentials"! The first page is just made to be a portal so that people know where to start browsing from! Also - using search is great!
As a long-timer CISVer, I get Fer's point. But you never know who will stumble upon this site or what about the hundreds of new, young inductees into the JB World who don't know how JB fits in with the international CISV structure (here we go again). Maybe the Aloha page can include links to the official site, and a non-official site (someone's page / CISV chapter?) that best explains what CISV is in general terms. :-)
happy new year!
