IntroductionWelcome to the online method database at methods.ringing.org, a collection of methods for change ringing. If you don't know what change ringing is, you'll find plenty of information on Roger Bailey's site. What is here?The point of this web site is to give access to a database. The database lives on methods.ringing.org and users can get to it through these pages. Computer programs can also access the database directly. In the database are methods; currently, we have all the methods rung, as listed on the Methods Committee web site in their method collections. In the future we may also add collections of unrung methods. So why do we need a new database?All the methods which have already been rung are already available online, from the Methods Committee. Why bother setting up another web site to give access to the same information? There are two main reasons why this site meets needs beyond those met by existing collections.
To search the database, go to the search page. For information on how to use the database from your own computer programs, see the section entitled For Programmers. |
