[LUAU] Open Source Pizza - September 18 - PhpGedView

[R. Scott Belford]

Aloha

You are welcome to join us on Tuesday, September 18 from 6:00 to 8:30 for
our monthly Open Source Pizza.

Our Speaker will be Scott Belford the founder of HOSEF (www.hosef.org)

Scott will be discussing family trees, GED files, and a web-based app
called PhpGEDview.

"Growing Your Family Tree"

More and more people are using genealogical software to research and
develop their family tree.  A problem quickly arises for families trying
to collaborate - who has the 'hot' copy.  Managing merges, updates, and
changes can be challenging, and the current model is not conducive to
sharing.

>From the world of Free Software emerges PhpGedView

http://www.phpgedview.net

"PhpGedView is a revolutionary genealogy program which allows you to view
and edit your genealogy on your website. PhpGedView has full editing
capabilities, full privacy functions, can import from GEDCOM files, and
supports multimedia like photos and document images. PhpGedView also
simplifies the process of collaborating with others working on your family
tree. Your latest genealogy information is always on your website and
available for others to see."

In September's Open Source Pizza, Scott Belford will demonstrate how easy
it is to install phpgedview on any number of publicly hosted websites, to
import your GEDCOM file, and to start growing your own family tree.
