>I'm going to have to weigh in with Herb on this one. The actions
>over at the IDRS list have always been high-handed, but now they want
>to eliminate the list and have everyone use the forum without so much
>as a poll to determine what the dues paying members want. There are
>plenty of forums scattered hither and yon about the net and if I
>wanted to use those daily I would. I prefer the give and take of a list.
>
>No reasons for this action have been given by the members of the
>board other than "that's the way we want it". Complaints that the
>forum is quirky, hard to use and prone to crashing have met with "you
>don't know how to use it". I can tell you from years of being in the
>software development business, that blaming the users gains you few friends.
>
>I'm really hoping that there will be a migration to this list, the
>administrative tone of which I have found over the years to be much
>friendlier.
