Information structure

For the separation of different issues different namespaces were used. The main namespace included destinations in its geographical hierarchy. Two other important namespaces were to travel topics, and travel news Reserved. A tight integration of destinations and themes was possible.

The content design of the products was up to the authors or the community, not the club.

Financing

Proliferation

Further distribution eg by mirror is legally permissible and desirable. To this end, current archives are provided weekly. The files contained in these archives are provided with all necessary information for licensing reasons, the attribution of the authors. A programmatic expansion with respect to the naming of the photographer is in preparation.

The choice of the " Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike " license allows a simplified disclosure under names of authors without taking home the full text of the license.

Resonance

In particular, in the Swiss media, the project has met with interest. Both the Tages -Anzeiger and the Swiss radio DRS1 reported in extensive inputs about the project, without concealing the weaknesses still exist.

The project is supported in 2013 mainly from German and Swiss authors.
