Hi list, I've compiled a few numbers on the recent European Seed Exchange: Number of donors who offered seed: 10 Number of seed recipients: 22 The avarage number of requests per offered item type: 2.2 The highest number of items requested in a single order: 35 cases, in which a specific request couldn't be fulfilled: 25 The most requested Items were: EX02_099 Zantedeschia jucunda: 8 requests EX02_004 Gelasine elongata: 7 requests EX02_067 Narcissus viridiflorus: 6 requests EX02_091 Watsonia knysnana: 6 request EX02_095 Dahlia imperialis: 6 requests Maximum travel distance for a single Item: roughly 4070 km (from Uli to Åke). As there have been discussions about the time window of 3 days (which was missed by 4 latecomers). Please share your opinion: should it be prolonged for future exchanges? Sidenote: We already have a rule to include both at least one day of the weekend and one working day, and the start of the time window is announced to eligible participants through a personal notification email in case they don't regularly look at the mailing list. -- Martin (pronoun: he) ---------------------------------------------- Southern Germany Likely zone 7a _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net http://lists.pacificbulbsociety.net/cgi-bin/… Unsubscribe: <mailto:pbs-unsubscribe@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net>
