Hello; ISTG is moving from Rootsweb. Those of you who have enjoyed looking for and finding ancesters on our free Rootsweb pages since our start in 1998 will find that we are still free; but with recent events changing the structure of Rootsweb we feel that it is time to move. Our sites may be shut down by Ancestry as early as today June 11, 2003 as we have declined to sign Ancestry's new contract. As soon as our new site is up and running I will be happy to give you the URL. If you received this on a list please respond privately unless your listowner ok's me posting more info Bob, ISTG _________________________________________________________________ Help STOP SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail
Bob, please put me on your mailing list for the new ISTG site. I've noticed quite a few people and lists leaving Ancestry. They're becoming quite the bully now that they've swallowed up some competitors. Oh well, we were there before they came along and we'll be there long after they're gone.
