As the list administrator for 10 lists, please bear with me over the next few weeks as I
try to learn how to use RootsWeb's new programming. I just received the tutorial
today and have not yet had a chance to read it.
The revised schedule for those updates is now as follows. It is my understanding that the
Gateways from the message boards will not work from the time the first lists start getting
converted until the time that each list is actually converted.
Thursday, Aug. 17th -- Lists A - C
Monday, Aug. 21st -- Lists D - F
Tuesday, Aug. 22nd -- Lists G - I
Wednesday, Aug. 23rd -- Lists J - L
Thursday, Aug. 24th -- Lists M - O
Monday, Aug. 28th -- Lists P - R
Tuesday, Aug. 29th -- Lists S - U
Wednesday, Aug. 30th -- Lists V - Z
Aug. 31st - Sept. 15th -- Non-Archived Lists, Newsgroup Gateways, and -I Lists
This means the following scheduled dates of conversion for the lists that I administer:
Thursday, August 17th: BALDWYN, BOLDWYN, CARELOCK, CARLOCK, CARLOUGH, CEARLOCK
Mon., August 21st: DOBKINS
Tuesday, August 22nd: GARLOCK, GOODNIGHT
Tuesday, August 29th: TXBEXAR
It is also my understanding that I will now only be able to provide one tagline, instead
of 10 rotating taglines as had previously been available. I will choose to keep the
following tagline:
"Posting of non-genealogical-current events, political opinions, prayers, virus
warnings, non-approved solicitations, chain letters, jokes, poems, non-genealogical
stories, missing children notices, and flames are not allowed on this list and may be
grounds for immediate removal and exclusion from the list. Questions or comments about
this policy may be directed to your list administrator, Susan Cearlock Tilleman, at the
following address:
STilleman(a)satx.rr.com ."
All e-mail addresses have been removed from the "reject" list in the present
programming to prevent them from automatically converting to the harsher "ban"
list in the new programming. However, I will not hesitate to re-add e-mail addresses if I
see the need to do so based on infractions of the above-mentioned rules.
Other current taglines which you may want to make note of are as follows:
