Re: OWNERSHIP: Clarification | Need for Ownership moderator(s)

[Steve Nieman <stevenieman@mac.com>]

Dear Dan,

I agree with Rodney and Norm that there should be a moderator(s) of the 
Ownership elist--if we want to be the most productive with people's 
time.

You might consider several moderators who could alternate monthly or on 
some other timetable, since Ownership is by far the most active forum 
in COG~~Steve Nieman
