If the information were applicable to both groups, then I would
agree with you.  For instance, when he asks for volunteers to keep
the FAQ updated, if he doesn't ask in the ng as well as the forum,
that would be ignoring the ng.

OTOH, all of this has to do with the new help setup which is going
to be in the forum so I don't think it is a deliberate "slap" at
the ng since the web forum is where it is going to be.  Or at
least, I am going to wait and see.

I finally realized that some of the posters who are complaining
about JT's highhandedness are complaining about the move of .mail
to the forum.  Now, I do think that they have a right to complain
that they can't have a ng to discuss email.  And it is not a good
harbinger for the other ng's.  As you may have noticed, I tend not
to notice insults so you may be right about JT's attitude.  He has
always totally ignored my posts so this is not new behavior.
