Buenos dias
You may remember that a few months ago we mentioned that we were working on a community
website model that communities could use for themselves, a sort of mini Eye on Spain
but just for each urbanisation. Well, I know it's late (sorry) but we've given
it a huge push and it's nearly ready. Here's a sneak preview of what you can
expect....
Eye on Spain community website
It's essentially a website that any community can use. We host it, maintain
it, develop it and it doesn't cost the community anything. The owners area
has facilities for uploading minutes, documents, a forum for the owners, and loads
more. We will begin our beta testing with selected communities next week.
Once we are happy with it every community can then have its very own feature laden
website.
More info to follow next week....

The Day the Don Juan Community Defeated Don Juan
That first community meeting can be quite a stressful occasion. If the developer

proxy votes are SO important, as David found out.
