Re: [GBW] [GBW_EXEC] New England Update, second try

[Eric Alstrom GBW Communications Chair <communications@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think the concern is not electronic/digital publications per se,  
but how they are distributed.  A blog, unless it can be password  
protected, is open to all.  That is not a bad thing, but we have to  
know it will be accessed by non-members, too, if we decide to have  
GBW/chapter blogs.

Distributing newsletters, etc, via email is different.  Only members  
will get the email with the newsletter.  Another alternative would be  
to have a member-only section of the web pages with the publications/ 
info posted there.
