Okay All, I haven't finished reading this thread yet, but first off, just let me say there's no hijacking going on here at all. Josh and I moderate both this and the VIPhone group as well as administrate Maccessibility.net .
So both these lists and the site are a part of eachother. Secondly, I suggested that we automate the list postings, as it not only saves work for us, as we'd post this info by hand anyway, but it also allows you all to receive the posts to the site in a more timely fashion. Lastly, the link is not some effort to boost traffic to the site. :) This was designed as a convenience for all of you. Some listers don't want to receive large emails with articles they don't want. So rather than having an entire article in a message, it makes more sense to post a small blurb along with a link that people can click on if they would like to read the full article. Ya know, we really are doing are best here to help keep this community well-informed as well as to make the very best group of resources available to you that we possibly can. We are honestly trying to appeal in the best way we can, to the needs of the whole so I'd really invite your understanding in regard to our efforts?… WE'd certainly welcome constructive feedback and suggestions. Please do consider being supportive of us as well, as we are for you if you would?… It would truly mean a lot. We'll continue doing the best we can to keep these lists and The Maccessibility network the very best resources for this community that they can be. Thanks for reading and do have a lovely weekend!… Smiles, Cara :) --- View my Online Portfolio at: http://www.onemodelplace.com/CaraQuinn Follow me on Twitter! https://twitter.com/ModelCara On Sep 5, 2009, at 10:29 AM, Donna Goodin wrote: Oh, I'm sure that's it.
