Thank you for including the original message. My server has picked up your
response, but not the original inquiry.
To the compain-er:
Actually, I think the Times is _exactly_ the place for TIB to place their
pronouncement. Its news, and its "public service" [aka..be aware, there is
a war going on over here]. A NEWSLETTER is the best place for this. IMHO
As for what's on the list...there is a block of players that prefer to
reserve
the list for rules-related issues. Frankly, I disagree, but it appears this
is a concensus...the g2-list is ually _dead_ quiet.
My opinion, as always
Jim Frediani
