Without wishing to discuss the business of the BRHS on the wrong List, it cannot be denied that the CBQ List is the foremost means of spreading and collecting knowledge about the Burlington outside of the Bulletins and Zephyrs, so perhaps it would be appropriate for the BRHS to support it by donating to the List’s file and photo collection storage costs. Without the CBQ List contacts, research leading to Bulletin and Zephyr articles would be very difficult.

I know that many of the BRHS officers are members of this List so perhaps they could put it up for a Board discussion themselves.

Paul & others,

 

The CBQ list is NOT a part of the BRHS, it is a list that I started and am still the owner of.

I would agree that BRHS ought to go for more storage, rather than reformatting & therefore reducing the quality of online images.

However, I think any incremental fees ought to be funded directly from BRHS, rather than individuals designating contributions.

OK, I get that the BRHS list is for society “business”, and that the CBQ list is for “sharing”.

Maintaining the archive, is one thought I’ve had on my mind in upping my annual contribution to BRHS this year a little bit;  but making these resources available online is a worthy and related effort, I think.

Another thought is how much I appreciate all those folks who contribute their time, effort & knowledge to these efforts:  both the formal archive and the information that is freely shared online.

Thanks!

Regards,

Paul
