this is open for discussion:
The idea was brought up about suggesting that specific discussion about
particular details of genealogy ties be taken to private email after
the inital flow of communication since it would not be revelent to most
members of the group. Hmmm . . .
Well first off it seems to me that in the recent upsurge of discussion
"provoked" by Carol Lester (con carino) Maria Cortez might have been
"forgotten" for possibly awhile if that thread had been quickly taken
to private email. I really don't like putting a rule on this kind of
thing. As long as its on topic I say let it all be said. Maybe we can
just kind of internally consider when discussion about a particular
connection between members has been sufficiently
"advertised" so that all have had a fair chance at getting the message.
On a volunteer basis we can then just let these threads fade into
private email that is until some part of it needs to be brought back to
the group like an addition to the genealogy line or making a connection
with other group members or making an association with one surname from
one area to the same surname in another area within our target area***.
[***This would be a good database for someone to work on for the
"files" area. Something like a list of surnames that are well
represented in the different locations in our target area].
Que Piensan? Wha'd yall think?

ps: I can't emphasis enough that setting your membership option to
"Digest" is a very nice option to use for controlling the clutter [if
you can call any message from the Ranchos group clutter] in your inbox.
