Hello all!

Sarah and I have stayed up many a late night this week to bring you the November Newsletter, chock full of new features and resources. If it hasn't reached your inbox yet, check it out online at http://www.relocalize.net/newsletter/november06. Due to technical reasons, we were not able to send out a text only (non-html) version of the newsletter. We apologize for any inconvenience.

There are two items we would like your feedback on:

1. Scripts!
Straight from the manuscript of Relocalize Now! Getting Ready for Climate Change and the End of Cheap Oil. The final manuscript with the scripts included will be sent to the publishers on November 15, 2006 - only 5 days away. If you have a few moments, please have a look at some of the scripts and give us your feedback! Check them out at http://www.relocalize.net/guide

2. Annual Report
This one's not so pressing, but involves more thought and reflection on the past year. Part of the feedback we would like to include is on the usability of the site and new resources that have been added - this can be given by filling out a quick online survey of 10 multiple choice questions http://www.relocalize.net/survey1

Part deux comes in two versions - one short, and one slightly longer - but the benefit to this is that the more detail you in, the more you'll get out. The responses from this section are meant to go towards something like one-page spread features for each local group. The report is meant to be a way of documenting activities, but also to be used as a fundraising tool for both the Relocalization Network and Local Groups. To view these surveys, go to:

If you would like to feature your group in the Relocalization Network Annual Report, you should aim to have your responses in by mid-December, but earlier is good too! If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to contact us.
