Good Morning everyone, I am forwarding a message that was sent to Mary and Pam, the Johnson County Co-hosts. It was sent to the TNChat-l list and I know that there is only a few of the CC's subscribed to that list. I think that this is something that everyone involved should know about. The message is as follows: Athol Return-path: <TNCHAT-L-request@rootsweb.com> Resent-date: Wed, 22 Jul 1998 12:37:37 -0700 (PDT) Date: Wed, 22 Jul 1998 12:36:49 -0600 (MDT) Resent-from: TNCHAT-L@rootsweb.com From: Nancy Cole <ncole@coffey.com> Subject: [TNCHAT-L] Johnson County Resent-sender: TNCHAT-L-request@rootsweb.com X-Sender: ncole@froniga.fen.woman To: TNCHAT-L@rootsweb.com Reply-to: Nancy Cole <ncole@coffey.com> Resent-message-id: <"k0LU3C.A.3YB.B-jt1"@bl-30.rootsweb.com> Old-To: maryfloy@mkatzman.tiac.net, jcress@tfs.net, TNCHAT-L@rootsweb.com Old-cc: pigolit@ix.netcom.com X-Mailing-List: <TNCHAT-L@rootsweb.com> archive/latest/31 X-Loop: TNCHAT-L@rootsweb.com X-Authentication-warning: froniga.fen.woman: ncole owned process doing -bs Dear Mary and Pam. Johnson County has been temporarily unlinked from TNGenWeb. Your queries, which are the property of the poster have been rerouted to USIT since I just discovered that you moved them without notifying me, thus making them inaccessable to TNGenWeb visitors. They will be maintained. This message is being cc'd to Megan and the TN-Chat list since it will, no doubt engender discussion and that list is the proper place for such discussion. The reasons for this temporary action are: 1. Refusal to identify Johnson County as part of the TNGenWeb project as is required and this despite numerous requests that you do so. 2. The forwarding of project mail to parties not participating in TNGenWeb. 3, Lack of team spirit, as evidenced by posting to the national list on matters which affect only participants in the TNGenWeb project, with the purpose of sowing dissention within the project as a whole. 4. Purposeful denigration of USGenWeb, TNGenWeb, and its volunteers in a manner that goes beyond your right of free speech and becomes destructive to both organizations. Johnson County is a wonderful site and we would hate to lose it, but until you can bring yourselves to behave as members of this team, your pages will remain unlinked. If you have a change of heart and decide to become responsible, accountable members of TNGenWeb, we will be happy to re-link your pages. Nancy L.
