David,
Thank you. The only reason this went to the NC list is because Philip
addressed me directly and copied it to the NC list, hence I sent the reply
to all, and it appeared on the NC list, which fits with my understanding of
protocol, that there would be a right of reply.

However, having done exactly the same thing yesterday with my reply to
Marilyn's comments to me, also copied to the council list, this has not
posted, so I am just wondering whether you are correct.

To add to the confusion, this one topic is now being discussed on the
Transfer list at the same time and I notice also that Philip is now copying
his comments to both the NC and the Transfer list, which is odd, because as
far as I'm aware, he is no more a member of the Transfer Task Force than I
am. That aside, Caroline then posted a question about my participation on
the Transfer list, to which I replied to her directly, with a suggestion
that it be passed on to other Task Force members on the list. This also has
not appeared in the archive.

I'm just wondering how much more complicated we can make it for those
involved to keep up with what's going on...:-) In the meantime, in order to
straighten out my side of the story for the GA at least, I'm going to repost
my letters to Marilyn and Caroline to this list after I this.


Regards,

Joanna
