My two cents: I believe both lists, FOW and RootsMagic, should continue as separate and individual lists. Many will continue to use FOW, even if they also purchase and use RM. Then some will continue to use FOW exclusively, and some will use both programs. To me it would be mixing Apples & Oranges. I vote to keep the lists unique to the programs.

I agree.... Although I will be switching to RM, I will still have and no doubt use FO as I have many databases that I converted to FO from my PAF days. My primary database will move to RM but it would be too much work to move all the rest. I vote to keep them separate. I have subscribed to both user groups and will continue to read both.
