Hello everyone
like CIndy, I am one of the participants who is guilty of not particiapting. I learned a lot about rarely felt I had much to offer in return as I am stillvery much a beginner in mediterranean gardening.
Thank you to Sean for all your hard work and attempts to keep it going. I will bookmark the archives so I can continue referring there for help.
Best to everyone and may your gardens continue to prosper.
S.

Subject: [medit-plants] GDPR and this forum
Hi Folks -
Like many other services on the Internet, Freelists must come into compliance with the GDPR (
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation). This will mean a complicated process for each subscriber in order to remain subscribed to this forum. Doing nothing will likely result in you being unsubscribed by Freelists.
Since this group - an attempt to rekindle the original Medit-Plants group started back in 1994 - has never really worked, I think it is time to let it go. The forum has remained largely dormant due to very low participation. I have tried to 'seed' discussion periodically, with little result.
The Hort.net archives will remain online for anyone who would like to search/browse their content.

I will be looking into how to shut down this forum in the next week or two.--
