Hi All,
 
Before I dig my hole too deeply, I think it is important to say that I am not a member of the SSI. Therefore, I deserve no part in decisions regarding its actions.
 
Being the SSI's parent society, I don't believe that the AIS could or should ever be considered its competitor. Theoretically, all that is good for the AIS should be good for the SSI. This isn't a case of the American Iris Society asking... say.. "the Iris Society of America" to divulge all of its knowledge. It is a parent society that could use the cooperation of one of its sections in a project that could have a global reach and effect.
 
This is to be made available to any and all that wish to see it. Each SIB entry contains a direct link to the SSI home page, which seems beneficial to a society that, it would seem, some, fear may be undermined by the AIS wiki's creation.
 
It is important to address all concerns. If this is truly believed to be a major factor in the future of the SSI, I would never suggest it be taken lightly. It is my sincerest hope that all involved will benefit from the outcome.
 
With that said, I'm going to to remove myself from this discussion, because I fear there is an unnecessary rift developing. I have no interest in enforcing my will upon others.
 
Terry, I didn't recognize your email address without your name. To answer a previous question the ICSEM in my e-mail signature is a link to the Iris Club of Southeast Michigan (the most local of five MI iris groups I do my best to support).
 
Anna Mae, I believe the photobucket account in question is mine.
 
Bob, you continue to have my full support. I'm going to contact you directly, in case you don't get this, but I'm ready for the "C" medians.
