12 That's one of he things that keeps me away from contributing anything
13 to the GWN. Whenever I've sent something to the feedback address or
14 replied to a draft GWN with corrections, I've never heard back nor
15 have my corrections been made or rejected with a reason.

17 If the GWN wants to be that "independent" I wont stand in their
18 way. But I do agree with Christel that the GWN today is only a shadow
19 of what it used to be.
