I'm so amazed by some fast track RDL developments after the Romblon Sanrokan Convention. I'm particularly impressed by the launching of the Sanrokan News Magazine through the benevolent editorship of Aline. Let's give Aline the deserved accolade for a job well done.

It's kind of embarrassing that I have been remiss of my job as designated moderator. Sorry guys; I'll try to make up for the slack. I do have some plans like writing a column in the Sanrokan Newsmag. My column will run under the heading of Pass.word.com. which stands for Pass that word column. Through this column I intend to facilitate the discussion of critical issues for the purpose of reaching a consensus and/or plan of action. I may express my own views but it will be for consensus building only.

A good example is the topic on the on-line publication of the Sanrokan News Magazine. If I'm not mistaken Aline offered a 3-month trial publication free of charge. (No, just one month, 4 issues -- Aline) The logical assumption is that after three months, we have to continue but at a certain price. Stopping, of course, is not a viable option. We, therefore, need to know the long-term plans of Aline and discuss with her the logistical or financial support we can provide.

There is an old saying that we cross the bridge when we reach it, but at least we should know beforehand what is that bridge made of.
