The formation of a new internet discussion list for ESRI's ArcView, which we covered in an August 27 news item at <A href="http://www.directionsmag.com/news.asp?NewsID=44">http://www.directionsmag.com/news.asp?NewsID=44</A>, has led to some very interesting on-line discussions about the future of these lists, and their moderation policy.&nbsp; We host letters from:<p>
<ul>
<li>Barry Zickuhr, founder and original moderator of ESRI's ArcView-L 
discussion list at <A href="http://www.directionsmag.com/letters.asp?LetterID=22">http://www.directionsmag.com/letters.asp?LetterID=22</A>.<p>

<li>Bill Thoen, our Contributing Editor and the founder of the MapInfo-L discussion list, at <A href="http://www.directionsmag.com/letters.asp?LetterID=24">http://www.directionsmag.com/letters.asp?LetterID=24</A>.<p>

<li>The founder of the new ArcView discussion list, Bill Huber, at <A href="http://www.directionsmag.com/letters.asp?LetterID=23">http://www.directionsmag.com/letters.asp?LetterID=23</A>.
</ul>


Our re-launched My Industry section (<A href="http://www.directionsmag.com/industry/">http://www.directionsmag.com/industry/</A>)
has gotten off to an excellent start.&nbsp; The map galleries are starting to build (see, for instance, Advisor Betsy Pfister's maps in the Agriculture Gallery, <A 
href="http://www.directionsmag.com/industry/Default.asp?Sub=MapGallery&amp;Industry=1">http://www.directionsmag.com/industry/Default.asp?Sub=MapGallery&amp;Industry=1</A>). 
Six new volunteers have signed up as Advisors, and we've already added new My Industry sites for Non-Profit Organizations and for Public Health.<p>

Product comments have been knitted into the product directories.&nbsp; Take a look, for instance, at this listing of data products to see how comments are set up: <A 
href="http://www.directionsmag.com/products.asp?a=typelist&amp;typeid=2">http://www.directionsmag.com/products.asp?a=typelist&amp;typeid=2</A>.<p>

Anthony Quartararo's first column is at <A href="http://www.directionsmag.com/columns.asp?ColumnID=23">http://www.directionsmag.com/columns.asp?ColumnID=23</A>. 
<p>

And this week we welcome new advertiser Smallworld Systems.<p>
