Subject: Re: Need to clear a few things up..
I agree that we should make this a members only group, but people
should not be penalised for not posting. I am members of other groups
where I am interested but have not yet had the urge to post.
As regards the files section, I can only speak for myself. I have
posted 3 pages from a book that is over 250 pages. What's more it's
out of the print and the author has publicly encouraged people to
reproduce while it remains unavailable!
