Geocaching Adoption Service

Post by embi » 04 January 06 8:59 am

Occasionally users need to transfer ownership of their listings to other users. This is a handy utility for sending and receiving adoption requests and a way to help make the transition go smoothly for the new listing owner.

The best way to work out what it is is to play with it - its basically a community created reference work.

If you are interested in the latest happenings in the community, check out the Geocaching Australia Newsletter.

:lol:

No offence or criticism to EcoDave. I know how much of a PITA it is to edit a newsletter and chase people for material. I've done it for the League of Silent Flight and Neighbourhood Watch among others.

But the latest happenings in the GCA newsletter were apparently in March 2004!

I hope the wikimacallit is more up to date...

Had you tried the second link in my posting you would have arrived at the geocaching.com category page in the wiki and saved a lot of unnecessary searching.

I started an explanation of a wiki and why your search didn't work but Firefox errored out before I posted.<p>

Rather do it all again I'll, just suggest you can read about it <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page">here</a>

I went to the wiki once. Has nothing on tea, but Mix fixed it.

Went again. Has nothing on RSS. Hopefully someone can fix that.

hint hint :roll:
