Tom, I respect what you say, and don't wish to argue, but I have another data
point.
The very first box came to me on a Saturday, and I was able to review the contents,
soul search on replacements, make the log, enclose a floppy disk, post it to the
web and mail it on the immediate Tuesday; 3 days. All the while, attending to my
work and family's needs. If one doesn't have the time to log each part, then just
simply drop a note to the newsgroup with the status. We all seem to make the time
to read and respond to newsgroup items.
No one said anything about "enforcing", just requesting and reminding. I don't
think the reason for boxes being delayed has anything to do with the log. It just
has to do with the priority people put on this. I felt it was important to ship
the box asap (I had hoped to have it out within 24 hours, but an emergency at work
delayed it by another day).
No offense taken or given by this message - Just another perspective.
Best Regards and continue to have fun...,
-Phil
P.S. nice job on your web pages. I finally took a look because I was curious what
DSM meant.
