Greetings SC-L folks,

This week marks SC-L's first anniversary.  Thanks to all that have
participated over the year.  And special thanks to those that have helped
behind the scenes -- Sean, Mark, and the good folks at Nidhog.com for hosting
(and putting up with) all of my sites.  For those interested in stats, we
have hovered right around 700 members (between the SC-L and SC-L-DIGEST
groups) pretty consistently for about the past 10 months.  (I have no way of
counting the readers that grab the archives and/or the RSS feed.)

The group has been active at times and pretty close to dormant at other times.
So much so that I often ask myself if maintaining the group is worth the
effort, quite candidly.  I've always seen my role here as the facilitator,
first and foremost, although at times, I forward articles and URLs that I
believe will be of interest to the group.  (Are these useful?)

In any case, as the list's sole sponsor and moderator, I have a couple
questions that I'd like to solicit the group's feedback on.  Responses,
either privately to me or publicly to the entire group are most appreciated.
Constructive criticism is always welcome, of course.  Flames and whines, as
always, can go straight to /dev/null.  ;-)

- - What do you find to be the most useful about the group?

- - What do you find least useful?

- - What improvements would you suggest?

- - Would you be willing to contribute your own time and effort in implementing
your suggestion(s) above?

Cheers,

Ken van Wyk
