> ==========================
> The Ecofoot site is now officially "open" for any would-be users, so
spread the word about it! As it has been developed on a totally
non-commercial basis, I have put zilch money in marketing and such things.

> There had been some delay as I didn't have the time to implement
equivalence factors, but the program now includes definable equivalence
values for whatever application.

> Ecofoot was developed by me while I was writing my MA thesis in human
ecology, just to have something else to do sometimes. It is hosted at
Demesta, a small part-time computer company I run just for the fun of it.
Nevertheless, Ecofoot is completely free to use for anyone interested.
Ecofoot has a number of objectives: 1) to increase awareness of the
EF-concept, and 2) to make it possible to use EF-analysis as an integral
part in education at any level.

> So what about those Datasheets?
> ===============================
> It is easy to compose your own custom data sheets for Ecofoot. I have
written a short manual on how to write data sheets - just send a blank email
to the following adress and the manual will be automatically sent to you:
> efsheetinfo@demesta.com
>
> After writing a data sheet, just email it back to me and I will put it out
on the Ecofoot site. The data sheet is after that available to your
students/users through the Ecofoot site. Also, if you want to include
instructions and/or comments for the data sheet application, just send me
these instructions and I will add them to the DataSheetComment-section. The
would-be users of your data sheet can then consult these instructions if any
problems should arise while running your data sheet(s).

> There are currently no general/standard data sheets available at the time,
but as soon as I get the latest household values from Mathis Wackernagel, I
will put them out on the Ecofoot site. Also, if anyone already has any
national data and would like to write a data sheet, you are more than
welcome!
