[Mark Moody <ecoresources@bigpond.com>]

Hi Michael

I think you have overreacted just a tad. :)

I actually posted the note containing the word negative to you alone  
and an abbreviated version (without the phrase) to this list.   
Specifically because I know reactions like yours occur easily on the  
net. And I also followed up with this private note to you to  
specifically indicate I was happy with your interest and positive  
towards you and your work.

"Hi Michael

I've stuck a notice on our courses section re your courses this year.

http://www.ecoresources.com.au/ptv2/page22/page22.html

Hope it gets you a few more attendees. If you ever want to notify us  
of a course to list you can do it here.

cheers"

I'm therefore surprised to read this mini rant and will regard it as  
a misunderstanding. I hope you agree. I've posted this on the list so  
everyone else will understand what happened. And it would be great if  
you still want to participate.

best wishes

I didn't thnk I was being negative. I'm excited about the idea. I  
would like
to put the permaculture swiki on my site. I thought you'ld like to  
know that I
couldn't find the source code or your listing. How is informing you of
problems being negative? Would it be better for me to keep quiet and  
forget
the whole swiki thing? I thought I was helping. My bad. I'll back off.
