 ====== About TD-2 ======
-TD-2.org is a private wiki on telecommunications infrastructure and history, recently launched by J. B. Crawford. The goal is to build a website along the lines of [[https://coldwar-c4i.net/|Albert La France's]] invaluable resource, but with multiple contributors and a plan for sustainability into the future. I am also aiming for a more convenient navigation experience, by using geotags and interlinking.
+TD-2.org is a wiki on telecommunications infrastructure and history, maintained by [[https://jbcrawford.us|J. B. Crawford]]. The goal is to build a website along the lines of [[https://coldwar-c4i.net/|Albert La France's]] invaluable resource, but with multiple contributors and a plan for sustainability into the future. I am also aiming for a more convenient navigation experience, by using geotags and interlinking.
+The scope of this website is civilian and military telecommunications in North America, and specifically the infrastructure used prior to the widespread adoption of fiber around 1990. While there is a heavy emphasis on the Bell System and AT&T long lines, that is not intended to be exclusive.
 ===== Status =====
-I've been thinking about launching this project for a long time, but only really got to it recently. You will quickly see that a lot of things are half-done, see [[about:todo]] for a list of planned work (and there's a lot more to be done!).
+I've finished migrating most of the photos, maps, and other information from my old personal website to this website, and I've added photos of just about every site that I have personally photographed. I am working on setting up some pages as "golden examples" of how I hope the whole wiki will eventually be, like [[facilities:military:cheyenne_mountain_complex]].
