RE: [WSG] A few links...
We are thinking about this, the problem is that many people have sigs with their url in them and other people post links to sites with their questions. If we automate the link stripping, we'll get those too. I suggest (actually Russ did) we make sure we post the links in the resources area so that they are a permanent categorised record, rather than to the list, and I'll write a routine to grab all the posted resource links from the past week and send them to the list on Sunday (or is Friday a better day?) to save having to look there all the time. Sound OK? P -Original Message- From: Justin French [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 08, 2004 11:16 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [WSG] A few links...

Re: [WSG] A few links...
All list emails are accessible in the archives on the WSG website if you login. The archives can be found on the right side in the navigation. That's why you're not supposed to send out superfluous emails. Like this one.. ... ... .. doh.

Re: [WSG] A few links...
Denis, you are right. While the archive section is partially helpful, any useful link posted to WSG should also be added to our resources section. Slackness on my part: http://webstandardsgroup.org/resources/ BTW, anyone can add to the resources section (especially to the built by members section), and anyone can post Web Standards-related links to the group. This includes web standards articles, CSS stuff, html/xhtml, semantics, accessibility etc. If these sort of posts were to generate too much traffic (if heaps of people started posting useful links), we could ask that they be put directly into the resources section only, and we can post out a weekly automated resources recap. Vaska, thanks for the offer but a bit far to travel for a free beer :) Russ Vaska.WSG wrote: russ, i just wanted to mention that these links you provide perdiodically have really been helping me get up to speed with css - thank you very much! if you're ever in brussels, i'll gladly buy you a beer...
