I repeat - if it is the wish of the majority of the List's membership that the no advertising policy be changed, or that photos be included, despite the burden of that additional content on the in-boxes of our members, we would be completely amenable to such changes, without any necessity to bifurcate the discussions. That has always been true, and remains true. We have no separate interest on Showgsd-l, other than to facilitate what our members want. If the objective was to expand the subject matter, it is perplexing that whoever was involved in creating this new list did not first come to the Showgsd-l management to see if there was a way we could all work together for the good of the fancy. We regularly request the input of our members, and then do our best to accomplish what our membership wants. That remains true now. Listers, Showgsd-l has always been loyal to you, and we ask now that you show your loyalty to the List. If you want to see something change, please let us know, so that the issues which are of interest to our members are brought here for discussion,, not somewhere else. Your input remains welcome. Please direct it to admin@xxxxxxxxxxx The Showgsd-l Management ============================================================ From: "Amy Safdir" <almanya@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: 2004/12/29 Wed PM 06:56:15 EST To: <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: ADMIN] List Option oddly the other list allows advertising and it is rarely done, or tastefully done...........it works out real well and it is very neat because you can send and recieve pictures. However thats what makes being on two lists interesting, they differ from one another, yet have mostly the same members. Otherwise we would only need one list, i enjoy both lists immensely!
