Subject: Re: [gislist] masters vs. certificate

From:  Anthony Quartararo



How did I over-react ? If you felt compelled to help Anne, then you had her
personal off-list email address to inform her of "best thing to start
with". What would you consider to be an "excessive ad" ? Her specific
question was "Do I do some academic work, or just jump into the tools?" -
so, how does your "single" paragraph answer her question ?

Dear Anthony (and listers),

I really cannot understand your over reaction to my mail. I think this list
is useful to everyone in the community, providing useful feedbacks, and
should not be abused by excessive ads. On the other hand, I will be pleased
to learn about new software, releases, new features etc. Software is a major
component of Geospatial world, and we should all know what is going on (yes,
I mean we should also know about non-esri components in the world).

My mail was a single paragraph mail, informing new users about a FREE
GEOSPATIAL LEARNING product. I believe this is what Anne asked for, and I
provided a simple reply. I did not promote the abilities, features etc.. Do
you think I am earning my life by marketing a free product?

I think my only fault was using the company mail account for this innocent
posting.

Best regards,
Demir Devecigil
