SUO: RE: Keeping This List Focused




Jon, John, and All,

	I'm not trying to limit discussions that relate to the work of this
group. So, if anyone has a posting they believes relates, please post it,
but unless it's obvious how it relates, please take a few words to explain
the relationship.  

	But I don't think members want this list to be a general ontology
discussion forum.  So if something does not relate to the work of this group
(you be the judge), please don't post it.  And the more someone posts, the
more careful they should be with the relavance of their messages.  

	Fair enough?

Jim
