Sturgis is designed for the face to face environment where every one is
present at the same moment in time. One of the things that I have seen over
time with tight use of Sturgis (or other face to face sets of rules) is that
motions are themselves often not well worded. Prior discussion gives some
understanding of the issue and a better written motion if one is made.
Once a motion is made then one can discuss the pros and cons and the motion
itself.

Perhaps if we discuss it some first a motion may never be necessary

Just a reminder...
Discussion comes after a motion is made and seconded. Without that, there's
nothing to discuss.

Dale, that was many years ago, PML (Personalized Mailing List) was geared to
being able to find posts with the surnames you were researching no matter
where they turned up and was available only to Rootsweb Sponsors and above.
but yes, a few used it to track other things. For example, at least one
person was tracking the appearance of my name back when I was National
Coordinator and even afterwards but it is my understanding that PML is
mostly dead now and can not be changed or added to. There is just as much
chance of info getting off our mail list by direct forwarding by someone on
the list as by that ancient process.
I don't see any particular reason to make the change and down the road when
someone else is Ohio SC perhaps (although you are doing a fine job) having
it on a private server could be an issue.

Subject: [OHGENWEB] OHGenWeb Mailing List
A few weeks back, I learned that Rootsweb used to have a feature that
allowed non-subscribers to receive postings to our list. Those who
originally signed up for that service are still able to take advantage of
it. And I have received e-mails from several CC's expressing concern about
this policy. They believe as I do that postings to our list are our
business and no one else's.
I have installed mailman on the
ohgenweb.org domain and have tested it and
everything seems to work fine.
The interface is at
http://ohgenweb.org/mailman/listinfo/cclist_ohgenweb.org
and the archived posts are at
http://ohgenweb.org/mailman/private/cclist_ohgenweb.org/ - you can see the
test e-mails that I had sent. You would subscribe through the interface (to
help discourage unauthorized signups) and you would post to the list by
sending an e-mail to cclist(a)ohgenweb.org . All signups would have to be
approved by the list administrator.
I can move our list (but not archived posts) to the
ohgenweb.org domain, but
I don't believe it is within my authority to make that decision.
So I will entertain a motion and a second to that effect.
