Note from the more-or-less moderator... As long as positions are based on logic and data and are professional, (vs. calling somebody names, or personal rants, etc.), and they are related to geospatial data or geospatial issues, I think they are fair game for this email list. If somebody supports a certain bill (or offers some position on a topic) that you disagree with, please enlighten the rest of us as to why the bill (or position) is wrong. And in some cases folks on this list may still disagree and that is OK. The list is intended to be a platform to share news regarding geospatial data and issues in Maine. A little debate every now and then is healthy. And there is always the 'Delete' key. =============================== Michael Smith MS GISP State GIS Manager, Maine Office of GIS State of Maine, Office of Information Technology michael.smith _at_ maine.gov 207-215-5530 Board Member, Maine GeoLibrary Education Chair, Maine GIS Users Group State Rep, National States Geographic Information Council [cid:image001.jpg@01CE26EC.8C2538B0] State House Station 145 51 Commerce Drive Augusta, ME 04333-0145 69o 47' 58.9"W 44o 21' 54.8"N ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This list Maine GeoNews (GEOLIBRARY-L) is an unmoderated discussion list for all Maine GIS Users.
