Temat: Re: [Bricolabs] request for an attempt to map and archive Sufi Pakistan,
Hi Rob and Bricos,

This sounds very interesting. I have experience working with Omeka
http://omeka.org/, for this kind of projects. I think Omeka works well, is
open source, free and very robust platform to design collections,
exhibitions and archives. I can offer my help for this project.

Cheers
