Hi Everyone Last nite I posted to Board-L part of a conversation with one of the Rootsweb people.. and I wanted to re-submit to the State Coordinator lists the ideas that came from our conversation First off the reason I'm not listing him by name is because he is currently swamped with learning and doing a new job... But he wanted to establish a dialog with the members of the USGenWeb Project about OUR needs to make a better project. At his suggest, he would like us as a Project to spend time brainstorming coming up with needs, wishes, and suggestions.... and submitting them to him through one or two people... instead of hundreds... So Mike St. Clair and myself have volunteered to do so until replaced by the NC... <g> One of his suggestions was the re-establishing of a liaison between the Rootsweb staff and the USGenWeb Project. I don't know if that was one of Betsy Mill's official titles...but it was one of the things she did. When Betsy left Rootsweb we lost a major support staff. One of the suggestions that just came is to have rootsweb accommodate frontpage extensions. I'm really stoked after talking to him and I'm hoping we can come up with lots of ideas. Have a great day Darilee bookstorelady@prodigy.net bookstorelady@prodigy.net http://www.rootsweb.com/~waskagit - Skagit USGW http://www.thirdstbooks.com - 3rd St. Book Exchange http://www.facesfromthewall.com - Faces From the Wall - Vietnam/Washington
