3. STRONGLY feel that restricting the swaps to only
Compacts is too limiting. A lot of components, such as
rom chips from an si, or Mystic motherboards, directly
contribute to upgrading Compacts. I think the rule
should be: if it works inside a Compact or Color
Classic or LC 5xx form factor, or is software that
will work in system 8.1 or below, it is legal for
swapping.

FWIW, I don't think people were envisaging a rule that would exclude IIsi ROM chips.

What we don't want are generic old stuff like 2Gb external SCSI drives, nor once-removed stuff like NuBus cards.

IF the consensus seems to be that one-day-a-week trading is a good idea (and I don't think the one-off digest idea is practicable, however attractive it is, given the limitations of the server software) then I'll put the idea to Dan. If he's agreable, then I'll propose a set of criteria for what is OK and no OK.

OK?
