Invitation to Participate

[Robert Bacal]

I'd like to invite you to post questions, comments or discussion
topics to this group if you are so inclined. The existing training
lists have decayed so badly there is a need to have alternatives.
TRDEV, the long time reputable leader has gone nuts with the
moderators booting people off, or moderating people who have been long
time participants in the name of...well...security?

The CTI list is still suspect because it's still using material stolen
from other lists, and the moderation there is heavy and slow, so it's
pretty much impossible to have discussions.

There are forums at the astd.org site, and that's where I'm starting
to visit and contribute.

I have no desire to run a large training oriented list, but then
again, if people want to take the initiative to contribute here, I'll
go along and manage the process as best I can.

If you wish to know more about how the owner/moderators of trdev are
killing it off with the way they are treating even long time
contributors and coming up with ridiculous rules that nobody can
understand, go to our The Curmudgeonly Trainer Blog at:

If that messes up, it's currently on the front page at http://thetrainingworld.com
