Hi Donald,
sorry, busy as ever. Yes I am getting these.
As for some things I would like to see happen:
First of all, I think it's important we know who's subscribed to this list, for the sake of fairness, so can we be kept abrest of changes.
Under normal circumstances I'm opposed to allowing automatic queries of list subscribers, because people tend to get upset when the information so gained is used to try to sell them things. An informal expectation that people joining the list introduce themselves would be a very different matter.
I think it's impportant that we communicate with all of the main providers of Internet in New Zealand, and am keen particularly to see IBM, Compuserve, and IHUG invited. No point in being secretive.
Is just asking people already on the list to tell others adequate, or do we need something a bit more deliberate? - Donald Neal -- Donald Neal | Q: How many programmers does it take to change Systems Programmer/Analyst | a light bulb?
