Yvonne,
After reading your message I visited the RootsWeb site and did
not see the Palladium banner, so figured the story must be accurate.
I passed along the word about RootsWeb to several other
lists that I belong to. One person emailed me to ask how I found
out about this. They had seen a similar posting on another list.
How did you hear about it?
I was really sorry to learn that RootsWeb had lost the sponsorship.
Let's hope that people, particularly people who use the lists on
a regular basis, will rally with financial support.....something long
overdue.
Good wishes for a merry Christmas to you and your family. And thanks
again for bringing the topic of support for RootsWeb to the attention of
the Zimmerman list.
Karen

Palladium Software, a major sponsor of Rootsweb was recently bought by
another company. As a result they have dropped their sponsorship of
Rootsweb.
