From a posting to soc.genealogy.australia+nz newsgroup:
This is a gentle reminder of the project we are currently putting together and to let you know that there must be a cut off date and it is coming up. We would like to have the database completed by the end of October at the latest so that the computer people can begin the process of putting into a format for cd production. I would love to have as many names as possible and for those who have already assisted with this project a big thank you! For those who have Cornish born pioneers who spent some time in Bendigo then we would love to have your contributions. Here is the run down of the project and the criteria we set for inclusions.
Thank you, Leanne

The First Families 2001 database is coming to its forecast end on 31 December 2001. At the end of the year the State Library of Victoria will archive the database to provide a permanent searchable record as part of the Library's contribution to the Centenary of Federation year. The State Library of Victoria is aware of certain difficulties that users of the First Families 2001 database have encountered, such as the removal of the 'Search' function, PIN entry bar and 'Guest Book/Forum'. In some instances, however, access to the 'Search' function may be made via the Internet Explorer browser or Netscape version 6.1. The State Library of Victoria is seeking to retrieve the database so that faults can be rectified and the site properly archived. Until the State Library of Victoria has access to the database, faults can not be rectified, technical modifications can not be performed and lost or forgotten PIN's can not be provided.
