RE: [AlpacaTalk] question for members

It would be nice if the information was available to everyone, I think.

Subject: [AlpacaTalk] question for members

Hello everyone! It's me in my moderator hat.

When I started this group in January 2004, I chose to allow members to
hide their email addresses. I didn't realize (or didn't care at the
time) that this would disallow the use of polls on the group. But an
issue has come up that sort of begs for a poll to be taken. So I'll
just ask everyone to give me their opinion.

Regarding privacy... some people have a wish for privacy in their
identity. I ask for limited personal information to join the group,
because I feel we're peers. I don't think I'll change that aspect, but
one of the current settings of the group is that anyone, not only
members, but anyone, can read the group posts and archives. Should this
be restricted to only members? It would preserve some privacy in that
only members could read the group postings. And you are free answer
privately or on publicly, whichever you prefer.

Thanks!
Heather
