I agree with TJ that the best solution is an automated one. Yahoo E groups
are an excellent list tool but I don't think it provides the facility to
search the Files area, which is presumably where shared contributions would
be uploaded.
IMO an effective search facility is essential for users to make best use of
the resources. The Guppy site is a prime example of an excellent and
extensive resource which cannot (currently) be searched effectively (they
are in the process of databasing contents).

Hello Jaco and the others,
Thank you for your e-mail. All the features you propose are just great, but
one problem appears...
What I am afraid of, is that neither you nor I will have enough time to
spare to maintain this list.
As you said you are not HTML guru so I don't want to load you with work that
is truly hard
(creating/maintaining AmiBroker site was/is).
The only workable solution is automated one. Because I really want to put my
time
and energy into developing AmiBroker itself I think that we (the group
members)
should find a third-party solution (preferable free) to handle this.
Alternatively, another Yahoo group (private, member - only) can be created
and
I can get the articles/formulas posted to it once a week and put onto
AmiBroker members area. The format of the submissions is to be defined so it
can be searched easily using (already working) search engine on AmiBroker
site.
... or maybe someone has a better idea?
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko

Tomasz,
Sorry to keep you waiting, but I had a hectic trading day and Mondays are
never not blue.
I am not an HTML or Java fundi and I use the hosting firm for initial
design. I can handle the basic stuff, but more complicated things like
searches etc. are above my fields of expertise.
Let's start at the beginning:
You would definitely know a great deal more about this than I do Tomasz
and anyone is welcome to suggest and change as I go along.
- The look and feel of the site I would suggest must be the same as
Amibroker.com ie: colors, logo's etc.
- We need to have a starting point as this library would develop quickly
into a much more sophisticated setup than I initially anticipated.
- We have to identify the immediate needs and the nice to have's for
future development.
Current needs as I see it (and I will try to keep the list as short as
possible at this stage):
1. Listings of AFL's with a definite split between Automatic Analysis and
Indicators AFL's
- All submissions must be in full AFL format and no conversions will
be done.
2. Each listing must be accompanied by a full concise description with the
following additional info:
2.1 Original Author
2.2 AFL Author and e-mail address
2.3 AFL official name
2.4 AFL short name if applicable
2.5 Main indicator drivers (Ie: RSI, CCI etc.)
3. Listing Searches according to:
3.1 Points 2.1 to 2.5 above
3.2 Date submitted
4. Files must direct downloadable and we must have a coding preview.
5. Membership allocation.
5.1 Membership access to Amibroker (Initial)
6. Copyright held by the Original author and that whole story of any
infringement or public use without the consent of the Author.
7. Disclaimer etc.
Future development:
1. Backtesting of all systems on a standard market.
2. Results driven search and report functions.
3. Feedback and minor improvements to any system.
4. Response per system by the users as to the successes and problems
experienced.
5. A reward program for the best AFL's submitted over a certain time
period.
6. Market research for the benefit of authors and users.
7. Trading ideas and rules which will improve trading in general.
There should be tons more to add, but the main thing is to get this
started and the members will guide us as to what is important and what not.
I have full FTP capabilities.
Tomasz you need to shout if you wanna go different about reaching the
goals of this whole process. Please note that although I am willing to
manage this process, my time is a definite constraint and if this grows
bigger I might not be able to maintain your high standards.
Regards.
Jaco Jonker

There must be many on this list whose native tongue is NOT English.

Including me :-)))
BTW: I am really impressed with this thread.
Jaco: Do you still want to manage this future AFL list/archive? I
haven't heard from you.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
