>>It is time to let some of the cats out of the bag and get some feedback

>>At the Fall AIS Board meeting last year they authorized the creation of
>>some online databases for the AIS. I put together a small team of folks
>>to help get the prototype up and running and it is now ready for folks
>>to start putting it through its paces.
>>
>>The first database is the electronic checklist database. our team
>>scanned and proofed the 1989 Checklist and I worked with Mallorn
>>Computing to put a search engine front end on the database. So you can
>>search the entire '89 registration daabase for a key word and you will
>>get a list of irises that have that keyword somewhere in it registration
>>entry. If you then click on an individula name you will see the complete
>registration.
>>
>>The second database is a complete list of every name ever registered by
>>the AIS. Each entry also has the source book listed (e.g.1969 Checklist)
>>and any awards if any that the cv has won.
>>
>>To be sure I need to do some cosmetic work on the presentation of the
>>information and provide a key to the meaning of some of the notations,
>>but it is a start.
>>
>>We are working on the '79 checklist, and as soon as the '99 is ready for
>>print we will integrate it into the database as well.
>>
>>Eventually there will be a $10 annual fee for access to these databases,
>>but for the moment they are free. So take a look at:
>>
>>http://www.irisregister.com
>>
>>and let me know what you think.
