I can find no evidence whatsoever that Rootsweb or Ancestry.com for that matter are selling our information. The new boards "rules" pages clearly state that both the GenConnect and MyFamily message boards combined will be free to users. Folks, please read what really is going on right now and don't jump to conclusions prematurely. Noone is getting robbed. The same Hubbub went on when Ancestry.com bought Rootsweb and we continued to operate our little niches pretty much the same with the exception our websites are now all free and not just the freepages. Better, yes. I think in time you will have to agree that this latest change is for the better. Norma
