Guidelines at last!

[Isaac OLEG]

Hello,

The PDF file is first class and very complete, I may tell you that the
head technician of the National school of Music in Paris (250 pianos)
have been given the old 2000 version of the guidelines (by me, a few
years before).

We plan actually to produce a document for the little schools and
other conservatories, and the actual guidelines will be welcome for
sure (it is a 3 people project including this man).

I'll let you know how it turns, in fact I translated in French the
text of the 2000 version, and I plan to translate this 2003 document
also.
Let me know if some are interested in having it, I also like to have
the agreement to distribute/use it, may be in the French technician
journal which is very small ;(  (with the due credits).

I had a problem with the latest Excel file, that could not open on my
computer, probably for a language version difference.

Is somebody having an updated version available on Excel or a database
under Windows? (I still use the 2000 formulae and it is yet not
precise for the little schools) I made a spreadsheet using the
original one, but I can't modify it easily, there are problems due to
the language difference also (I guess), so if I could find a complete
up to date spreadsheet or better a database, I would use it as it is.

Thanks to all who participate in this project, I don't know if we
should have comments from the conservatory ( 2 rebuilding technicians,
2 to 4 tuners, an apprentice, a leader tech), I'll try to have some
feedback from them if it is of some interest, as they keep record of
the hours spended, the furniture, parts, etc.

Greetings

> Fellow CAUT's,
> 	We are happy to announce that the revised Guidelines
> for Effective
> Institutional Piano Maintenance is complete - final edited and
> approved/vetted by the board, and newly formatted. The
> document is now
> posted on our CAUT web page
> http://www.ptg.org/caut.php/guidlines_pg.htm
> 	We are now soliciting endorsements for the document.
> The original
> Guidelines had a page with names of a hundred or so
> technicians together
> with their institutions. We would like to match and exceed
> that - it gives
> the document additional credibility. So please go to the
> site, take a look,
> and send your endorsement to fssturm@unm.edu (there is a
> link on the
> guidelines page).
> 	The posted version is in pdf format (read with Adobe
> Acrobat). The printed
> version will be slightly different - it will have a few
> blank pages so that
> sections start on the right page, and page numbers will be changed
> accordingly. The printed and bound version will become
> available as soon as
> we tell home office we are done soliciting endorsements.
> The web version

> 	So please get around to this right away - record your
