Re: Website for GWL: plans, issues, help wanted

Title: Re: [GWL] Website for GWL: plans, issues, help wanted
People:
   I can see this web site is getting a little out of hand.  If this is going to be the GWL website, I, as founder of the GWL, expect to have some say in it, and I would expect it to be like the list - a SERVICE to garden writers (the good kind, not the way a bull services a cow).  If nothing else, if there was profit from the website, who would get it?  That question alone would be a great way to break up the list.
   If you want to put up a website for pay, kindly give it another name and dissociate it from the GWL.
   Meantime, let's stay with items for a website that are an aid to the members of the GWL, please.

I couldn't agree more with Barbara--it would not be acceptable to many
garden writers, myself included, to have a dot com site that did not
pay its writers.
