Re: (ET) Get Together

["David Roden" <etpost drmm net>]

I used to use elec-trak.org when it was a straightforward repository of 
information (manuals, brochures, etc.).  I didn't much care for the second 
version's Javascript menu system (too twitchy for my taste), but I could 
use 
it with a little patience.

Then, a couple years ago or so, the site was redesigned as (I guess) 
mainly 
a forum.  Not sure why that was done.  This mailing list was and is fine 
with me as a way to communicate with the ET community.  I didn't think a 
web 
forum was necessary, and still don't.  But whatever suits, I guess.

At any rate I seem to recall going there for some kind of information and 
bumping into a forum interface, which I wasn't expecting.  For some reason 
I 
couldn't get what I came for - maybe it was that I had to sign up to even 
read stuff - but at any rate, I struck out.  So I sort of wandered off 
(probably looking bemused) and never returned.  

Not that I'm necessarily opposed to signing up for a forum - it's more 
that 
I wanted info, reasonably easy to find, and it wasn't there or I couldn't 
find it.  No offense meant, and I don't mean to seem ungrateful - I know 
how 
much effort it takes to maintain a website - but for whatever reason, elec-
trak.org just didn't work for me.

No idea what's up with the password.  Maybe to keep the riff-raff out?  
That 
would be me, I suppose.  ;-)
