While we've discussed many facets of an electronic QST, I think there is one group of questions still unanswered--what will be a user's access to the archive? Many members have and are proud of their collection of past QST issues. For example, at one point, I had every issue from 1963 to the present (until I started getting the CD-ROMs). Leaving for the moment the difference in media, will members be able to "keep" their copies in the same way? From what's been discussed so far, it appears that a member will be able to view/use the issue, but not save a digital copy. This would mean that a user would need to be online continuously to read an issue. Would we preclude downloading to read elsewhere offline? Would printing be disabled? Would only current members be able to read archive years, while a lapsed member would be unable to review an issue, even if it was published during the time he/she was a member? If I have a current subscription/membership, does that mean I have access to all the past issues? I am not objecting to electronic delivery, just wondering how we should address the complicated access questions that can be raised. Any suggestions? 73, Greg, K0GW
