Re: Y2K tool info not for BPCS_L

Al, et al,

BPCS-L _IS NOT_, _NEVER HAS BEEN_, and _NEVER SHALL BE_ edited for content.  
Vendors are indeed allowed to post solutions based upon questions asked, but 
will be banned if any "extra" services are advertised in the same response.  
I do not even see the responses prior to their appearance on the list, so I 
could not edit content if I wanted to.  I hold myself to a higher standard 
than I do other vendors and did not respond to your consultant "(hint, hint)" 
regarding the availability of a BPCS Versions/Compatibilities guide, despite 
the fact that I had a list.

While I cannot promise not to work for a list member, as that would preclude 
me from working for most of the active BPCS accounts, I _CANNOT_ seek revenue 
from the list or its members or the integrity of BPCS-L would be lost.  If 
_ANYONE_ perceives that I am not being unbiased in my administration of this 
list at _ANY_ time and wishes to spend the hours required administering it, 
feel _FREE_ to contact the system administrator david@midrange.com or myself. 
 This list was formed to advance knowledge from users "in the field" 
regarding BPCS at a time when SSA wasn't being so forthcoming with this 
information.  We allow differences in opinion here as long as it doesn't 
involve corporate duels, and I apologize that local weather conditions have 
prevented me from keeping as close an eye on things as I should have of 
late...
