Re: [Ql-Users] Quanta magazine Volume 26, Issue 1
Hi Everyone, Firstly, thank you to those readers of QUANTA Magazine who have said how much they have enjoyed the latest issues. I still have much to learn about the editing side of the publication but I am very pleased to hear that I am moving in the right direction. Your comments are important to us if we are to provide quality services from QUANTA. Please keep them coming. Secondly, I am concerned about the damaged envelopes which some of you are getting. In order to minimise costs, I buy these envelopes in bulk, and it takes about 7 issues to use the quantity. It may be that the self sealing adhesive dries out during this period as I have noticed that occasionally I get one which will not seal at all - I use additional sellotape in these circumstances. I shall watch for this problem and maybe have to use sellotape on ALL of them just to make sure. The flap may become stuck in the Post Office machinery which could be causing the damage although some have commented that the envelope is slit open across the sealed flap (and not that the flap is missing altogether.) Please keep me informed of this problem over the next few issues - whether yours is damaged OR NOT (to get some idea of balance) - it may be worth asking the PO to investigate. Rest assured that each envelope leaves here in good condition and the labelling has recently been changed to enable better printing on the Desk Jet rather than the old Dot Matrix which is coming towards the end of its useful life - don't we all!?!? Cheers, John Gilpin.

I received it as well. Yes, well done - and I prefer to see the ads in "full page mode" again - excellent decision. And up-to-date :-) One other point. Is anyone else experiencing a poor quality with the brown envelope used for the posting of the magazine. Yes, for quite a while already. My Issue, once again has arrived in a very crumpled envelope, with an open slit along the entire top edge ( although the magazine was still inside ). Is this only effecting the London area in the UK ? As another London Group member has had a similar experience with the envelope packaging being used, arriving in crumpled state. This is how nearly all issues arrive for a while. Jochen ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

[Ql-Users] Quanta magazine Volume 26, Issue 1
Hi. I received the Friday 27th February 2009 the Quanta magazine Volume 26, Issue 1, for February / March 2009. Which means that it has now caught up on the gap that had unfortunately opened up with filling of the editorial position. Well done again to John Gilpin for getting this situation back to normal. The content of the Issue is also good. So, perhaps John should remain as the Editor - as he is doing the job so well ? One other point. Is anyone else experiencing a poor quality with the brown envelope used for the posting of the magazine. My Issue, once again has arrived in a very crumpled envelope, with an open slit along the entire top edge ( although the magazine was still inside ).

Re: [Ql-Users] SMSQ/E
where is the official SMSQ/E site of Wolfgang Lenerz? Regards to all, Frank-Guido Dibowski It used to be at http://www.scp-paulet-lenerz.com/smsqe/ but seems to have disappeared, although www.scp-paulet-lenerz.com (the business website of Wolfgang and his partners) is still accessible. Marcel's website still lists Wolfgang's site, so I guess we'll have to wait until Wolfgang tells us what's happening. -- Dilwyn Jones ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
