Oh, I would not expect to be in the majority on this.
I think that AIS should actively pursue the retailing of books--and I mean
all sorts of iris books and not just World of Irises and Shears'
book--through the webapage, and
should expand the list of publications to include in-house written soft cover
pamplets on the order of Basic Iris Culture on topics of wide interest such
as hybridizing, companion plants, new ideas for show chairmen, growing irises
from seed, whatever.
I think we might expand the list of notecard and stationery options, and
possibly include a very few well-designed gift items carrying the AIS logo.
But I think the idea of getting into the on-line auction business is not
realistic from the standpoint of technology involved and not appropriate in
the context our overall mission which defines our purposes as education and
conservation.
