I have a positive feeling about WISPA, but again, I don't know enough about these specific areas to provide good input. 2. Honestly, as a non member, members may have a better handle on what you guys are doing, I don't know enough about what you are doing to comment 3. I think we do a fine job a lobbying. More money won't help in my opinion. We could use a better web site and listservs 4. Vendor participation is smacked down by the membership as "You aren't approved to say that." If a valid question was asked, a response is warranted. If it was unsolicited sales, that should be banned. 5. I honestly don't see a lot of value...yet I stay in because I believe in supporting my industry and have hopes that value will improve over time. 6. My "value" opinion is low because there is not much additional benefit that I get as a member over a non-member. I like the idea of WISPA paying for "boiler plate" agreements specific to our industry that is protected by login. Another idea would be for the "free" list to be viewed by anyone, but only "members" could post. 7. Great if you are US based, lists are valuable regardless.
