Dan said, "Unless someone can provide a server with attachment space -- No attachments on the Navigation-L List." Dan, I would be more then happy to expand the space that you use now for the Navl page on my server. I will even go one-step farther and offer to manage the files that people think should be available to other members of the group. I do not think that sending things out to all members automatically is appropriate because of the bandwidth problem, but the files can reside on my server to be downloaded by any member who wants them. If you want to consider doing this, you could make a link on your page that points to an �Attachments� page and I will place any files sent to my e-mail on that page to be available for download by others. If I run out of space, the Hudson Fisheries Trust has offered to make space available for this project on one of the servers they control. The link on the �Attachments� page would be transparent to the user and he would not see any difference in use between warehousing the files on one server or the other. This might be the painless way to let the members share files and I think it is worth doing.
