Hi All, I respecftully disagree - my understanding that on WikiEducator.org, there will never be any advertising.... Isnt' this the thin edge of the wedge doing some of the bending?
Why can't we just have a disclaimer on the DOT COM website, about it being the "commercial, or business" arm of WE? Also, regardless of what is decided, please do not allow the domain name. Wikieducator.com to ever lapse. THAT would be a disaster. - Randy On Mon, Feb 16, 2009 at 4:16 PM, Peter <[email protected]> wrote: > > and have wikieducator.com automatically redirect to > http://www.directory.wikieducator.org > > Good suggestion Steve > > P > > On Feb 16, 3:09 pm, Wayne Mackintosh <[email protected]> wrote: > > On Mon, 2009-02-16 at 14:48 -0800, Steve Foerster wrote: > > > I'm mindful that we need to find ways for WE to support itself > > > financially, and as such I'm all for having a directory of third > > > parties who help others use OERs, including those at WE.
