Their presence raises certain concerns for intellectual property, trade secrets, copyrights, etc. As list owner I expect you all to be responsible for what you post. The rules are pretty obvious. If there is something your company or affiliations does not want publicised, don't post it to the list. If you see one of your commercial or other partners post something to the list that shouldn't have been, don't bring it up on the list -- take it to direct email. Raising such issues on the list will be used as an excuse for removing membership. Please do not use this as an alibi to start adding disclaimers to your posts. You are the members on this list, not your companies. If it isn't your opinion don't write it. If you are reporting someone else's opinion, state it as such. If a post is written as a representative of your company or affiliation, then identify it as such. Adding a signature which identifies your affiliation is not enough. That can be too easily automated and is not an explicit statement of representation. A leading paragraph identifying the source or representation placed above all the textual body including the attributions, will do (keep it short). Commercial grandstanding, advertisements, chest puffing, or other forms of promotion are not appreciated on the list and will be rewarded with removal of membership. The list is an expressly non-commercial venue. It is intended as an intelligent and free discussion by peers in the field, both hobbyist and professional. Membership of the list is not a right. You are here as my guests. This is a private list run as a personal contribution to the field. As a sign of respect and trust I allow members to invite others to join the list they feel would positively contribute to the list. This permission is currently given generally to all members as I trust them to handle it responsibly. Posting to the list may be considered analagous to having a conversation in my living room using bull horns while the windows are open and everyone has tape recorders. And on a final note: Attempting to invalidate or discourage a discussion or avenue of investigation on the list because it strays too close to a commercial project's field or other such interest will be deemed an intentional personal insult and due cause for permanent removal from the list along with all associates. -- J C Lawrence Internet: claw#null,net (Contractor) Internet: coder#ibm,net ---------------(*) Internet: clawrenc#cup,hp.com ...Honorary Member Clan McFUD -- Teamer's Avenging Monolith... </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01277.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Genuinely brief intro</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01279.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Genuinely brief intro</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01281.html">Re: mention from Mud-Dev</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01273.html">[MUD-Dev] Genuinely brief intro</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#01278"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#01278"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>Re: [MUD-Dev] Room-based vs. coordinate-based</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="01335" HREF="msg01335.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Room-based vs. coordinate-based</A></strong>, clawrenc <a href="mailto:clawrenc#cup,hp.com">clawrenc#cup,hp.com</a>, Wed 18 Jun 1997, 07:16 GMT </LI> </ul> </ul> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="01305" HREF="msg01305.html">List message losses</A></strong>, coder <a href="mailto:coder#ibm,net">coder#ibm,net</a>, Thu 12 Jun 1997, 12:21 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="01303" HREF="msg01303.html">Digest support</A></strong>, coder <a href="mailto:coder#ibm,net">coder#ibm,net</a>, Thu 12 Jun 1997, 12:15 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="01281" HREF="msg01281.html">Re: mention from Mud-Dev</A></strong>, clawrenc <a href="mailto:clawrenc#cup,hp.com">clawrenc#cup,hp.com</a>, Wed 11 Jun 1997, 00:45 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="01278" HREF="msg01278.html">Commercial interests and rules</A></strong>, clawrenc <a href="mailto:clawrenc#cup,hp.com">clawrenc#cup,hp.com</a>, Tue 10 Jun 1997, 22:26 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="01273" HREF="msg01273.html">[MUD-Dev] Genuinely brief intro</A></strong>, Dr. Cat <a href="mailto:cat#eden,com">cat#eden,com</a>, Tue 10 Jun 1997, 10:16 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="01274" HREF="msg01274.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Genuinely brief intro</A></strong>, Jeff Kesselman <a href="mailto:jeffk#tenetwork,com">jeffk#tenetwork,com</a>, Tue 10 Jun 1997, 13:59 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="01279" HREF="msg01279.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Genuinely brief intro</A></strong>, Dr. Cat <a href="mailto:cat#eden,com">cat#eden,com</a>, Tue 10 Jun 1997, 22:34 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <UL> <li><Possible follow-up(s)><br> <LI><strong><A NAME="01277" HREF="msg01277.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Genuinely brief intro</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Tue 10 Jun 1997, 21:54 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL></BLOCKQUOTE> </ul> <hr> <center> [ <a href="../">Other Periods</a> | <a href="../../">Other mailing lists</a> | <a href="/search.php3">Search</a> ] </center> <hr> </body> </html>
