    3. Dear All, It's time, I think, that we discussed adding our Gedcoms to the Rootsweb World GenConnect Project. It appears to me that this is going to be, in short order, the largest store of family tree information in the world. In the short time it has been uploading, and if it continues, will soon surpass the available information stored in Ancestral File. It will be better than the IGI in some ways because the information is stored as family groupings, worked on by an interested individual. Now, I know that this may cause some angst among some of us, but I think that this is another way to have interested others acess our files and hopefully, add to the store of knowledge. What we will have to do is establish agreement on the ties between the early families or add our gedcoms on an individual basis, mentioning that as yet we haven't proven the exact ties to the earliest generations. Those possibilities could be listed on the Roblee-List for those interested after finding a gedcom and contacting one of us. I agree with RootsWeb. We need to access this ongoing project and have our information there for the others whom are looking. A discussion, I believe, is in order. Let us know your thoughts on doing this. HOpe to hear from you soon. Bob Robblee
