Hello Devon ( and List )

Yes, I agree, personal details are personal and should not be shared but it
is up to the node owner to distribute what information they are comfortable
with.....

( A quick search via Google will show that we are not a " private " group on
the internet )

My understanding about this thread is that we share the " Technical " side
of the discussion via the list, we are all in a position to add what we want
to, so we have to accept that, I think that's what Dan was trying to say,
( and the way I understood it )

When Legal issues are bought into a discussion for a " Community Group "
like Melbourne Wireless then maybe we have missed the point of what we are
trying to achieve ?

Mate,  I'm happy to take this offline if you want to, or, keep going via the
list....

Cheers,

Rob.
