i think you should adjust the word South Africa to the titel of this project, for I was wondering for some time whether I was visiting people in Australia or in Africa. It's rather important to choose a good name for a project, for only then you can interest the adjust people to visit and recognise your information. I'm not Deutsch, but Dutch, so I think some-one made a mistake by inviting me to cooperate. But that's no problem for Europeans....

Snippet from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaffraria

Kaffraria was the descriptive name given to the southeast part of what is today the Eastern Cape of South Africa. Kaffraria, i.e. the land of the Kaffirs, is no longer an official designation. It used to comprise the districts now known as King Williams Town and East London, which formed British Kaffraria, annexed to Cape Colony in 1865, and the territory beyond the Kei River south of the Drakensberg Mountains as far as the Natal frontier, known as Kaffraria proper.
