Re: [APML] Mission Statement Change?

[Chuck Vaughn <aa6g@aa6g.org>]

Dean,

I think I've only acknowledged the list as it currently is. If you wish
to go back to the original intent of the list then you'll have to prohibit
Rob, Roland and others from posting their images. You'll also have to
prohibit any discussion of image processing techniques that originated
with CCDs that might be applicable to film.

I have no problem with the CCD vs. film discussions. Any person who cares
to be honest with themself can judge the merits of the arguments based
on the images presented.
