Re: [AGA-mcm] APD Apology Draft



I think it's great, except I'd leave off the "It won't happen again. Seriously."

It doesn't add any meaning, and could be construed as snippy. We know that snippy is justified, but why have it out there for posterity?

Subject: [AGA-mcm] APD Apology Draft


Here is my proposed text, in reply to Gomberg's message:

---------------------------------------------
The AGA has in fact made a mistake by including these two issues of
_Planted Aquaria_ on our archive disk.  We mistakenly beleived that we had
acquired reprint rights when the organization purchased the entire stock
of magazines from Dave in 2002, as well as providing his remaining
subscriber base with free equivalent membership in the AGA.  Upon
re-reading the contract, it appears that we are instead merely the owner
of all remaining paper copies of the magazine.

We have taken corrective measures and removed all references to _Planted
Aquaria_ in our TAG archive disk masters, and any new copies will not have
the two out-of-print issues of PAM.  You can apparently still download a
low-resolution version of Issue #2 from Dave's site.

The AGA apologizes for this mistake.  It won't happen again.  Seriously.
---------------------------------------------

If anyone has comments, it's appreciated.

  - Erik
