from: jose colaco to ulysses menezes nassau, June 4, 2002 My dear Uly,
Over the past several days, I have observed the mail going through. I understand the hurt and the resultant unhappiness. Even so, I have advised all of us, albeit privately, to (please) exercise extreme caution in our actions. Pardon me for writing this publicly. I read your post of today and I request all involved to PLEASE drop the matter. PLEASE! I have a fair idea where this matter is heading. Please Remember that we are all Goans and all human too! Let's leave this now & move ahead. Allow me to state this, once & I will not debate this. It is being posted here, only for the record. Herman Carneiro is the father of this baby called GoaNet. In 1998, as a result of family neglect and the ensuing Malnutrition, GoaNet went into a ~ 9 month period of Coma. Rene Barreto, the good Goaphilus and filius from London requested that we develop a mini-list to keep the links between Goans, open. This is how Goa Link was born. With Marlon Menezes' technical help, GoaLink became a d-list. At the same time, Ulysses was keeping the lines of Goan communication open with GoaMania. JC requested Uly to join forces with Rene & GoaLink, and he did. GoaLink kept the Goan conversation going for 9 months when Goalink was merged with Goanet. After having given Respiratory support and Blood Transfusion while GoaNet stayed in Intensive Care, GoaLink and its founders quietly faded into the background. Their goal having been achieved. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/goanet/message/2 So Uly, you understand that Rene and You are the Godparents of this child. You looked after the child when the parents were 'lost'. As Godparents, your job is to continue supporting GoaNet. On a personal note, I have learnt a lot from GoaNet. Ema and I have made a lot of friends courtesy GoaNet and we would like to thank all those who volunteer to keep the conversation going. Let's hold hands and assist each other, jc PS: While JC will not debate this issue any further, do not hesitate to request JC for any material to substantiate the above. Have all possible GoaLink- GoaNet, / GI d-list/ The Goan Forum d-list correspondence on zip and will research it, if required. But....will not comment in public about this matter again! ===== Recommended Goan Sites in Cyberspace Goa-World at http://www.goa-world.net The Goan Forum is at http://www.colaco.net __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
