The Dig Tree project is sponsored by the Uniting Church in Australia and is being organised by Kippax Uniting Church. The aim of the project is to help the church use and create multi-media resources.
The idea is to essentially create an "open" publishing system that uses a copyright framework to enable subscribers and contributors to share resources without fear of breaking the law, but also protects the interests of the author/creator/artist.
Eventually the intention the resources will be available by subscription (amount to be determined). The income will help for covering the distribution costs, to sustain the project, and to commission contributors for specific content.
Distribution of resources will be via the Internet and possibly by DVD (depending on various issues be resolved).
We am very interested in finding both potential contributors/subscribers. Feel free to visit the website and register your interest. More details can be found on the website about the project or just send me an email.
However, just to get you moving, right now there are a couple of free Advent resources that are available in "the Library" on the new website http://digtree.unitingchurch.org.au. The only thing is that you need to self register on the website to get to the files. You will find them in the beginnings of "the Library". Feel free to contribute your own creations as well... of course don't forget to check out the copyright rules first.
Shalom
