Another vote for the list to remain as is. I’m also not on Facebook and would 
miss out on postings if it moved. I left Facebook several years ago amid 
concerns about privacy and its use of my information and browsing habits.

Hi David
Thank you - very kind.

For the moment, in my quest for citizenship of an EU country, I am trying the 
Romanians - might just be easier for me. 

But I may well be back in contact in due course.

Kind regards

If anyone in the group has had issues getting Austrian citizenship, I would be 
happy to share my experience with them. I applied to the Austrian Embassy in 
Canberra. And now, some months later, I am sitting (in a, not very lockdown, 
lockdown) in Bregenz.  
Feel free to email me directly.

I also found that under the new laws obtaining Austrian citizenship was 
straightforward. My father was born in Vienna, left after the Anschluss, and 
fortunately kept all his papers. I also gave the Embassy some of his school 
photos and even a photo of my grandfather in WW 1 military  service which they 
actually forwarded with the application.

 PS: I wonder whether it would be feasible or convenient to move this group to

Dear Bukowiners,

 

It's interesting to read the discussion about Facebook possibilities.
Personally, I feel that the group in its present format is highly valuable,
and since we would inevitably lose members in a move to Facebook, I'd also
like to keep our Czernowitz-L email discussion group in its present format.
Besides, there are already several Facebook groups for Jewish Bukovina, the
Czernowitz Jewish Cemetery, Gura Humora Jewish Community, Romanian Jews, and
more. 

 

Edgar, Jerome and I recently made some changes to help perpetuate our group
postings for anyone wishing to search for specific information, or anyone
doing historical research.  To us, our archives of postings are a treasure
trove of information.  Recent changes have also allowed for non-Plain Text
postings, as well as attached files under 1MB in size. David points out that
Facebook posts are difficult to search, and I'd agree.  You can find our own
mailing archive at the bottom of this email, and older postings can be found
on the Czernowitz.ehpes.com website.

 

I'm reassured to hear that a number of members enjoy and value this group;
I've learned so much for all of you.  

 

Warmest wishes always,

Bruce Reisch

Dear all,

I'd also like to add my view on this. I prefer the email group from which I
learned immensely in the last couple of years. There is one other instance
in which I found out that Facebook can be helpful (connected to my current
research topics), but I tend to dislike public postings and those rather
trivial or simplistic pictures or emoticons most users feel inclined to use
as their means of expression. While some postings and reactions may appear
appealing they are also highly annoying and repetitive. I personally prefer
the informative and friendly format of this email group.

of course, a majority may decide upon it and I am willing to accept what
most members decide,

 

kind regards

Dear czernovitzer

I prefer an e mail group than Facebook, the first seems to allow more 
privacy and, on the other side, I strongly oppose the use of our 
personnal data by Facebook.

I enjoy reading the exchanges through the email group even if I do not 
take part; ought to the group I met an unkown cusin.

But I would leave in case Facebook takes over.

[czernowitz-l] Facebook

2021-11-23 Thread David Glynn
The idea of switching this email list to Facebook has been mooted.  I am 
a member of several Facebook groups.  I find the presentation, and the 
ease of inclusion of photographs, seductively attractive.  But, in my 
view, Facebook has disadvantages which render it unsuitable for this group.


* I find the order of posts extremely confusing.
* Once posts have receded into the past, it becomes more and more 
difficult to find them.  This negates part of the purpose of this group, 
which is to serve as an archive regarding Czernowitz.
* What is the situation regarding copyright and intellectual property?  
I have not read the small print, but I would not be surprised to find 
that all the content belongs to Facebook.
* In which case, it is not impossible that the whole archive might 
disappear at any time.


Best wishes to all,

David
