Hello Alan,

On Saturday May 12 2018 02:16, you wrote to me:

This is what I read:

 FG> The election for a new Zone 1 Coordinator has started, as of May
 FG> 7th, 2018.  Please see the published schedule in the Z1C echo or
 FG> in the Z1_ELECTION echo.

What I see is an invitation to go read the published schedule in Z1C or
Z1_ELECTION. There is no mention that the invitation only applies to Z1 sysops.

 AI> Is FidoGazette not an approriate place to read about the election?

Not if the election is a Z1 only thing...

 AI> I believe it is perfectly appropriate.

I beg to differ. If non Z1 sysops are not even welcome to read about the
election, then it should ne announced in a Z1 only medium.

 MV>> Or is the FidoGazette not supposed to be read outside Z1 either?

 AI> Where would you get an idea like that?

Because it is used to announce an event where non Z1 members are not welcome.


Cheers, Michiel
