For some time now messages deemed inappropriate were merely deleted from this group.

 

Now prior to deletion some editorial effort will be made to salvage all postings denoted and properly attributed corrective measures this would change our groups into something more thing newsletters. This will improve matters as the only posting that will not be found acceptable will the various forms of commercial spam and other nonsense (Hi Important Announcement etc)

 

As usual your postings (and repostings) are encouraged with bibliographic references, notes, credits and the like, once posted those postings will continue to exist in a semi-permanent form.

 

Any writers or researchers with financial needs are directed to post them in private.

 

I'd like to wish you ALL A HAPPY PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR
