Default Directory Issues and Information

I hope I am not speaking out of turn here and I don't want to speak for LN,
but I think this is important to post.

I believe LN is resending the email in two sessions with the Directory
attached. I have already received the second email with the attachments and
everything worked fine. If you do not get yours within the next day or so
and you are certain you filled in the form, please contact LN via email and
not the NG.

Others who have already received their copy of the Directory, please do not
forward copies of it to others without contacting LN first. The only point
of distribution should be LN. She knows who submitted the form and should
be getting a copy of the Directory at this point in time.

The next revision will be near the end of the year. If any revisions are
made to the submission form, a test of the form will be done which will last
about 1 week. Then the form will go "live" for an appropriate period of
time selected by LN. Several announcement messages will be posted on the NG
as they were this time. The form will include precise instructions and a
deadline as it did this time. If you want to be in the Directory, you need
to fill in the form, even if you filled it in for the previous version. The
reason for this is twofold - LN gets the accurate and any updated
information and the data captured by the form is sent to a "unique" file
which is used by LN to create the various formats sent to you. The deadline
is necessary since LN then takes that file and reformats it into the formats
you requested. This takes some time to do and if the reformatting had to be
done for each straggler, the Directory would never get published.

The form is easy to complete and gives you a confirmation page of your
submission information which you can print out and save.

I realize that there will always be someone who misses the deadline for any
number of valid reasons, but hopefully, everyone will see one or more of the
notices sent out ahead of time so everyone will have an opportunity to get
into the Directory should they so choose. Plus, I have a vested interest in
this whole adventure - I know there has got to be more than 4 quilters in
NJ - there just has to be!!

Hi Alice,
I must agree with the statment that there must be more than four NJ
quilters! I never been in a empty quilt store in all my travels across the
state! We must have a great many lurkers ;-)

That's what I'm thinking! I think we need to do a study of each state's
number of quilters per 1000 population. I bet we beat those Texan's!

Thanks for posting this, Alice. I can't access the NG thru my server
right now. It's been down for days. I also have been searching for a
free newsserver to use instead of the one I get thru Verizon. The one I
used to use isn't free anymore.

I feel your pain. The free one I used isn't free anymore and I am using the
one provided by Comcast. It's not too bad and my posts show up very
quickly. I am using a free one on my laptop though. I will forward the
name to you. It's not bad.

There are definitely more quilters in NJ, and I definitely filled out the
entire form during the right period of time... so I really don't know why i
was excluded... so i guess I will have to wait..

I've used Free Agent for about 7 years - never any problems, except I
do find that if I want to e-mail anyone to reply privately I have to
copy their addy and use my normal e-mail thingy. I presume this is
because this is the free Agent instead of the one you pay for which
appears to have full e-mail facilities. I can reply to the Group tho
using Free Agent.

I think LN is looking for another "news server". Free Agent is what is used
to read the messages, but you need to connect to a server first to get the
messages. My ISP (Comcast) allows me to connect to their news server and I
use Outlook Express to read those messages.

There are some free news servers out there, but many of them do not allow
posting, and others may not carry a full line of newsgroups, so you have to
do a lot of searching through the server links to find one that works.
