Sorry for being so long in getting back to you - and for putting you off a bit longer without a decision. I'll blame the delay on the holiday season and folks being on vacation - yes, that sounds much better then adminitting I simply let it slip. Regarding your ideas, a couple of days ago I finally had a chance to discuss this, in some depth, with Terry Ellison, one of the other admins at the site. Our initial thought is to find a way to accommodate. However we feel it is really a decision that should have input and buy in from a broader number of the active participants - to that end a discussion topic was opened on our admin forum, along with a copy of your message this afternoon. ----edit ---- actually I sent that email a few days ago, but from the wrong account, so it is stuck in limbo I believe. The first comments have came back already. Mostly everyone is ok with this - assuming a few ground rules and we are still hammering those ideas out. I'll let you know just as soon as I do. One question that came up was - Why, isn't there already a consultants directory? The response I gave to that will prompt the next email to this list from me. Drew
