INTERNATIONAL GENEALOGY ASSOCIATION NETWORK (IGA_NET<TM>)
SATELLITE CONFERENCE RULES
Revised 06-23-1995
Echo Tag : IGA_SATELLITE
Co-Moderators : Larry LaBranche (440:130/46, 1:125/46)
Gary Bristol (440:130/109, 1:147/109)
Rules of the echo
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. This echo is used to discuss satellite technology regarding
moving electronic mail and files, discussion may also include
peripherals such as receiving dish specifications and information,
receiver systems, uplink/downlink ground network-transfer topology,
(as in who-sends-what/when-to-where etc).
2. The moderators of this echo carry large fire extinguishers
and will not hesitate to use it immediately upon encountering
ANY type of flame against another person. Flames and personal
attacks are prohibited in this echo. Anyone may participate
in such discussion as long as they follow the rules and spirit
of the echo.
3. Commercial activities are prohibited on the echo. This does not
prohibit mentioning commercial products and publishing
evaluations of such.
4. Leave the Moderating to the moderators.
5. No high-ASCII characters may be used in messages.
6. The use of taglines is strongly dissuaded. In the event the
originator of a message finds he/she has an urgent need to
utilize a tagline, the tagline will only be a short line detailing
research surnames:
Researching: JONES, GREEN, and CALLAWAY
Cutesy taglines add nothing to the value of genealogical research
being conducted by the message originator.... in fact, they detract
greatly from the serious purpose of the message content.
Also, taglines add to the length of messages and therefore add to the
cost of transferring traffic via continental and intercontinental
telephone. Again, you are requested to empathize with those who are
paying the long-distance charges and leave taglines off your messages.
7. This conference may not be gated to any other network without
the express consent of the IGA_Net<tm> North American Coordinator
(440:1/1).
8. Questions or comments about these rules, the echo, or its management
should be sent via Netmail to the one of the moderators.
9. With these minimum constraints, please use and enjoy the echo.
IGA_Net<tm> is a TRADEMARK of International Genealogy Association
of North America, Fredricksburg, VA 22405.
