MINUTES OF USGENWEB PROJECT ADVISORY BOARD MEETING
The Advisory Board of the USGenWeb Project met in emergency session on Monday,
December 21, 1998, at 7:00 PM (CST). This meeting was called because Bob
Bamford, Acting National Coordinator has submitted his resignation:
"Genealogy is a hobby, we all enjoy the research, the contacts, the
comradery and the thrill of the search. All of us, as a part of that hobby,
volunteer in various genealogical and historical organizations, to both
further our knowledge of the hobby and make a contribution to its
furtherance. It can be fun and rewarding but unlike the work we do to gain
our livelihood it provides no remuneration save that of having made a
contribution.
"When this volunteerism reaches a point that it is no longer rewarding, no
longer provides satisfaction, but instead becomes a burden, it is time to
disassociate yourself from those organizations that no longer provide any
benefit.
"I therefore submit my, unequivocal, resignation from all positions in the
national USGenWeb organization, effective immediately, and direct said
organization to immediately remove my name and e-mail address from all
national pages. I will be unsubbing from all national mailing lists,
immediately upon confirmation that this message has been received."
