I appreciate this, but I don't like someone else doing this, putting my Email in there, and not telling me. Granted, this is not your fault.

As far as I can tell pretty much all of these requests had been taken care of. But you are right, you sent a mail on 2001/10/11 saying specifically: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The link to SVCS SIGs is broken on SVLUG links page. Should we ask SVLUG to change their SIGs link, or change our website SIGs URL link from http://www.svcs.org/SVCSSIGs.html to http://www.svcs.org/sigs2.html I vote that we change our link, so that we don't irritate SVLUG guys. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The way I read this, this looked like thinking aloud, and seemed to say that we didn't necessarily need to change anything. There has been no more mails or requests from you since then. 1) Send us a clear request if you need something 2) Please ask again if you don't get it the first time or if there is a misunderstanding (which in this case I think there was) 3) feel free to escalate to officers@svlug.org if you are not getting an answer, you should always get one. > since we transferred the webserver to pacbell. The link has been fixed. Please, do Email webmaster@svlug.org with a clear request next time, and ask again if it didn't get done the first time. We're all volunteers with day (and sometimes night) time jobs Seems to me that we're having really poor communication here. Let's try to do better, shall we? :-) Marc -- Microsoft is to operating systems & security .... .... what McDonalds is to gourmet cooking Home page: http://marc.merlins.org/ | Finger marc_f@merlins.org for PGP key From klynn1 at telocity.com Thu Feb 21 13:55:20 2002 From: klynn1 at telocity.com (Kevin t Lynn) Date: Sat Apr 2 14:56:37 2005 Subject: [web-team] Re: SVCS incorporation status, SVLUG SIG References: <20020221004920.GT16613@merlins.org> <20020221024233.GX16613@merlins.org> <3C75399C.F89F1C7D@telocity.com> <20020221192605.GC16613@merlins.org> Message-ID: <3C756CC8.7B4D5A57@telocity.com> Marc: Thanks for the quick response.

Actually, you can announce this on svlug@svlug.org, this will reach more people. You need to be subscribed for your post to be accepted, but you can send it to me if you prefer and I'll forward it. Thanks for your responses and updating your pages too.
