That is a new message for me. I am subscribed at this e-mail address, and
have responded to many e-mails, PTG-L and Pianotech in exactly that manner.

 

Is Ron Nossaman's earlier prophecy about the long term integrity of this
software coming true; i. e. is Higher Kludgic beginning to choke on itself
and "shit the bed"?

David and other PTG members,

 

I just began a discussion on PTG-L list about the my.ptg.org forum. I know
talking about it here is wonderfully cathartic, but on PTG-L we can actually
communicate with those who have the power to change this stuff.

 

I'm all for ditching the stupid Higher Logic crap, but if it happens, it's
probably not gonna happen by talking about it on this list. 

 

See you on PTG-L....

Yeah. Fascinating. Our organization, our dues, our passion, our devotion to
this community, yet no vote, no voice, no communication. The men on the
Board and on the Committee responsible for this change looked me in the eye
at the Convention in KC and said that if this provider didn't get it
together, they had NO PROBLEM in pulling the plug, and soon; that's close to
a direct quote. It's 3 months later; what's gotten better? My friends, it's
a trust issue between leadership and the membership. If someone tells me
something face-to-face, and then there is no follow-up, no reports, no
follow-through, trust goes down. It's that simple.

this old list, I find that our posts appear sometimes within a minute or
two. Now with the new list, it can take up to a day. If we had a vote on it,
I am sure the new list would disappear and the old list would stay. Sigh!

the post from email (as opposed to going to <http://my.ptg.org>my.ptg.org,
etc., etc.), not that that's any excuse for it to be delayed like that.
I've accidentally tried to post from the wrong originating email address and
it manages to tell me so in fairly short order... five or ten minutes... so
I'm thinking maybe there's something "up" (or actually, something "down") at
the vendors... could it be? The shock! The horror!

one hour ago, with neither showing up.
