G'Day Bill, Kevin and Paddlewise

Finding a way to record who is available for paddles is a great idea. The
tier system sounds excellent. I'm a bit worried about putting it on the Web
which is available to the whole world and personally would prefer to
restrict my invitation to Paddlewisers.

Did think about adding a line to each record in the Who's Who list but that
is also a very public list on the Web, although I'ld be happy to do this if
that was the concensus.

Also very much like Ralph's suggestion of adding a byline address and
location to ones email posts but that excludes lurkers from offering and
they are an important group within Paddlewise.

How about a list posted monthly to the Paddlewise group using Bill's Tier
system and supported by Ralph's byline at the end of a post for those who do
post. If noone else is available I'ld be happy to organise whatever
Paddlewisers and our List Manager agree on. On the other hand Bill if you
are willing to take it on I've benefited from your advice in the past and
would very much support you.

All the best, PeterO
