I have wondered that too. Holmgren's wife is a member of this forum as 
far as I know. As for Mollison, he probably prioritizes his work 
schedule and excludes this list, and probably all others, as one of his 
acctivities, not because he feels that we aren't worth  his spending 
time with but that he has offered his books and courses, and that should 
be enough; the rest we should work out among ourselves, i.e. figure out 
how to forge the frontiers of permaculture on our own without his 
watchful guidance in the forum. As for the other writers mentioned, they 
are certainly welcome to subscribe and I hope people will show them the 
way here.
