With only two business days and a sneeze to go we have quite a staggering
22% response. That is 152 people who have let us know what they feel we as
moderators should do regarding commercial use of the list. I'm guessing
that what happens on Monday is that at midnight, server time, the survey
closes and an email is sent to the list with a url of the results.
The results are a mixture of quantitative and qualitative. No-one can see
who has voted for what, nor who has said what. The comment fields are
likely to be the most useful in helping us work out how to interpret the
quantitative data.
With this response I think no-one will be able to say with any justification
"I have been disenfranchised", nor that, provided we are able to interpret
the results in a manner congruent with JANET rules (why does that always
make me think of my cousin who was a roller skate dancer? [ok, too much
information, but it IS almost Friday!]) the rules we gain from the consensus
are in any way arbitrary, self serving, exclusive, cabalistic etc.
Of course, just to make sure, and knowing that 78% have chosen to remain
silent, are the 78% CONTENT to remain silent? It;s your list, not ours. We
just moderate it when needed because some poor sap has to! So make
absolutely certain that we know what you want.
