The original option was that the secretary informed everyone by the e-mail
list that i created to put out as a group e-mail so everyone got all the
information at once, as members increased the amount of e-mail that were
requesting me to pass on to individuals also increased hence the reason for
the new system it
was supposed to lighten the workload of the secretary, it is for group
communication not for individual communication, you can still e-mail
individuals when you need to. It is not designed to air your personal views
as Charles quite rightly stated that's what the AGM is for, you also be
deleted from the list if you do not wish to get information via this means,
but please do not expect it to come via the post. This was also a reason why
we voted this system in to keep the cost down.

Charles - I think you misunderstand.
There is no new website. Chris Norton has already built the website.
All we are suggesting is that we splash out £6(!) on a name and through the
magic of t'interweb this name can point at the existing website.
Freelists will continue, but with one significant change as discussed last
weekend. The current list will stay as it is and members can opt out if
they don't like it. There will however be new a master list with everyone
who has email on it, just for official communication which only the
secretary and chair can post to.
I'll also be drafting some guideline for using the lists to try and
encourage acceptable use. Any comments on this please send to me directly at
mr.steve.pickard@xxxxxxxxx
Hope that explains it better

Hi Martin
This sounds like an excellent idea but would it not also be an opportunity
to deal with the less desirable aspects of the 'freelist' facility which
has, unfortunately, enabled personal issues to interfere with the
professional nature of the association (and I am as guilty as any!).
Would it be possible to design a website that had a purely informational,
professional portal for S&DBKA with a members forum for those who either
want to grind their axes or just have an exchange of views? If we have
something in the kitty as Simon indicates, would this not be a worthwhile
expense?

Hi all,
It has been suggest that Sleaford Beekeepers obtain their own domain name
for our website. The costing for this is £6 for two years this would provide
email addresses for the association and make the web more accessible,
promoting the Sleaford District. I am canvassing opinion on this matter. All
comments welcomed...within reason. We would like if possible to give the go
ahead this weekend, so if there are no real issues the committee would like
to authorising the go ahead this weekend.
Regards
Martin Robinson
Treasurer
