Re: Why we hate/love the STC (Was open letter ...)

[Steven Jong <SteveFJong -at- comcast -dot- net>]

It looks like TECHWR-L would be breaking even if not for the perceived 
need to hire replacements for the irreplaceable Rays. What this forum 
needs is a classic volunteer effort. A managing editor could solicit 
articles to keep the content coming, and an ad manager could solicit 
ads to maintain the revenue stream.

Unfortunately, the initial spate of responses to Eric's announcement 
(we could move TECHWR-L anywhere, just as long as it doesn't fall into 
the clutches of--yuck!--STC) has had the effect of driving away most of 
the folks in the STC community, including those who would have both the 
means and the motivation to help keep TECHWR-L going. It kept me from 
responding for the last week...

If we consider how to maintain this resource without excluding a large 
and active segment of the population, we can find a better solution.
