I first thought they looked neat but after a little thoughtful
consideration, they have totally screwed this up. There are no links back to
the county sites, they released it without it being done, AND they certainly
could have consulted with a dozen or so CC's before making the changes. I
think we need to look elsewhere as this is getting even me nervous and that
takes some doing.

Subject: [MNGEN-L] old GenConnect Boards
Jackie and all,
Are there other CC's in MN that were using the GenConnect boards that
have gone away since they have all been combined into one Rootsweb
Message Board? I really liked the GenConnect Boards and don't wish to
be an administrator for the new boards, which require that a poster be
registered with
Ancestry.com and raise some big questions in my mind
about copy right, as well as the fact that the new admins will not be
allowed to do any editing...not even at a poster's request. So I
haven't re-adopted the boards for my two counties, but am now looking
for some other query system. Does anyone have any suggestions?
