Can't get the poll site for voting, but I think the gateway should be left
open. I don't think it's confusing. Barbara Calvert

Hi Dawn,
At the moment i have only got back to 1849 with my John Calvert. However, my
John married SARAH TALOR,
John was born in WOODHOUSE LEEDS, so im pretty certain ours are going to join
up somehow??? More so, because of the Leeds connection, ie woodhouse/Little
woodhouse... . Sarah Taylor was also born in Durham , so we have a few
coincidences here. Im hoping to check at the BDM in Leeds in a weeks time, so
i just might pick up one of the names you mention, ie, My John could easily be
the son of one of your names????. Keep in touch, and i will let you know the
outcome of my search.......
Thanks for getting in touch,
Karen.

Subject: [CALVERT] From the listowner: A Poll - PLEASE READ
Hello all,
Due to the number of folks that seem to dislike the copies of the web board
posts that appear on our mailing list and the number of folks who don't seem
to understand how to respond properly to them, I am considering asking that
the gateway which allows these copies to come through be closed. If the
majority of the list would like the copies to continue, I will leave things
as they are (with the reminder that in order to post a reply to these
messages, you will need to post it directly to the board address listed in
the email, NOT to the mailing list). BUT, if the majority of folks want the
messages stopped, I will have the gateway closed and we will no longer get
copies of the web postings. So that I can get a fair and equitable
accounting of the consensus of the majority, I have created a "web poll" for
voting. Please visit it and cast your vote either "yes" for continuing to
allow the copies, or "no" for closing the gateway and stopping the copies.
I will leave the poll up until midnight CST on Friday so you will have two
days to get there and vote. I do not want to start a discussion on this
"on-list" but will be more than happy to take your comments and concerns
into account if you include them with your vote. After the voting is closed
I will tally the votes and review the comments and will post to the list to
let you know the results. The address for the poll is
http://jadis.dyndns.org:8080/genealogy/calvert/poll.html
Just a few points to consider before voting...
1) If the gateway is closed, we lose a potential source of "connections" via
the list and each member would have to be responsible for checking the web
boards occasionally on their own if they so choose.
2) Most people know how to delete and can just delete the extraneous
messages if they choose whereas if the gateway is closed, they don't have
the choice.
3) The web boards allow for an additional outlet/inlet for researchers
looking for their ancestors. When the gateway is closed, that potential is
lost.
Now, I personally don't care one way or the other. I have to monitor the
boards anyway as part of my "job", so either way is fine with me. Just want
to do what the majority decides...
THanks!
Christi
How can one ancestor cause so much TROUBLE??

Christi, I agree, the "web board posts'" format for queries is not
clear. I vote to go ahead and close it.
