hello to all,
I have given this some thought (and read the posts re this), and I
would have to now agree that there is nothing to gain to bar
commercial messages from the mailing list. Yes, many would want the
information and it is easy enough to delete what you dont want to
read.
I would actually prefer that these messages are posted, rather than e-
mailing individual list members. That is what motivated my earlier
post. I dont like the practice of companies e-mailing me just because
I post here, or publish in journals that list my e-mail address when I
am an author. Just my preference,
happy flowing...

No this is not acceptable! I'm sorry, I just don't get it! I agree
100% with Roland.
I can't understand your position at all? WHO pays the majority of
the expenses for meetings? Vendors! Without them your cost to attend
ISAC would probably triple or quadruple!! Who allows you to have
very cheap or FREE local users' group meetings? Vendors! Who solves
issues with vendor services?? VENDORS! Why on earth would you
exclude vendors from the discussion???
And actually SOME people welcome messages from vendors... Vendors can
solve a lot of your problems! The Boston Area high speed sorter
list, for example, welcomes vendors responses and they get
results. The vendors HEAR their requests and respond! I've learned
a LOT from vendors! Without messages from Vendors, how do you find
out about new products and services? How often would you go to the
ISAC website to look for a new product you don't even know
exists? Or how do you know there is some training opportunity
happening in your area? OR how do Vendors know what you need and how
do you get your service / technical questions heard by all vendors?
Shutting them out isn't the answer to your mail problems! Roland's
answer was eloquent! And, although we've discussed this often,
nothing has ever evolved that is a better suggestion! If you don't
like messages from vendors, just filter them out, and having
[Company:] in the subject time is a perfect way to do that!
I'm sorry, I just don't get it!! Why would you shoot yourself in
the foot? Vendors - you can put my email address on your mailing
list!! Just put [Company:] in the subject line! I'll filter them
and decide what I want to read or not read later! Just like I filter
this list!

I agree with Sue and Roland. I would hate to see the list swamped by
marketing material but the occasional announcement like the one
below
is definitely of interest to me.
Another example of a mailing list that works with some vendor input
from time to time is the confocal mailing list - often there the
subject line will be prefixed with "Commercial". Some people on that
list on that list are also careful to declare commercial interest -
which I always appreciate.
The bottom line, to quote, out of context (?), from another thread :)

Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Without belaboring the point, while I find this an interesting
suggestion,
it would imply that I should place [Company] in the subject line
because I
work for a company. All rules have their excess, and I would submit
that J
Paul (actually Steve) and company have done a great job maintaining
the
integrity of this list. If an occasional message is allowed thru that
has
potential commercial implications, I would rather have that than
complete
(or no) censorship. If individuals wish to express their displeasure
at a
specific posting (irrespective of the source) this allows discussion,
and
if necessary, re-calibration of the gating algorithm. And regarding
vendors monitoring the list versus actively soliciting messages, I
suspect
that most monitor this list to gather useful information, much of
potential use to their customers. But this is quite different from
"open
access" for solicitation.
While I'm here, some additional comments:
1.) Cost of the ISAC meeting. I find the registration of $650 (US) a
bit
steep for a meeting. While I was on ISAC Council, a resolution was
passed
by Council that the Congress be shortened (in an attempt to reduce
the
registration fee and overall cost) and be held annually. The
combination
of a $650 registration fee plus hotel costs (esp in Europe- for US
scientists) makes it difficult for many labs to bring key technicians
and
post-docs; it even makes it difficult for many senior scientists to
justify. To put this in a bit of perspective, the American Asc for
Cancer
Research charges a $425 (US) registration fee to their members for
their 4
day. An important difference is that the AACR has SIGNIFICANT
industrial
support. We need to do as much as possible to make our meeting's
overall
cost "reasonable". ISAC must do everything it can to keep the overall
meeting costs (registration, airfare, hotels and meals) to a minimum
(this
ain't ASCO).
2.) Vendor support. This is essential for ISAC or any other
professional
society. At one point, I was chair of the committee that raised
donations
for the ISAC Congress, and approached every company that I could think
of
that sold products to our membership quite shamelessly. Every society
does
this because it helps lower the cost of the meeting (or should) for
the
individual attendees. And by the way, the money the vendors use comes
from
the customers. Donations are thus a means to widen the available
attendees
who will buy their products. The approach must be balanced.
3) Meeting location. While I appreciate this is a problematic issue,
refer
back to item "1. At one point, ISAC restricted the Congress to
"smaller"
venues to keep us together. Much science gets discussed (in places
that
tend to serve alcohol) at ISAC, and that's one reason I attend
(discussion, not libations). Where will we gather in Budapest (after
poster sessions)? Unlikely to be the InterContinental Hotel - I
probably
could not afford one beer there.
4) What is the focus of ISAC? I'm running for Clinical Councilor
(sorry, I
too had to get in my pitch), so my potential constituency for the
most
part has a limited focus. But the society needs to have a balanced
focus
on flow and image cytometry. And I don't think that DNA, RNA or
protein
arrays should be our soup!. Our unit of measurement is the cell, and
once
you bust it up, someone with better technical expertise should be
telling
scientists and clinicians what best to do. That said, we should
communicate and work with "non-cellular" scientists where our
interests
and technologies intersect.
I need to go home for the weekend. A Happy Easter to all.
Sincerely,
Vince

the discussion???
And actually SOME people welcome messages from vendors... Vendors can
solve a lot of your problems! The Boston Area high speed sorter list,
for
example, welcomes vendors responses and they get results. The
vendors
HEAR their requests and respond! I've learned a LOT from vendors!
Without
messages from Vendors, how do you find out about new products and
services? How often would you go to the ISAC website to look for a
new
product you don't even know exists? Or how do you know there is some
training opportunity happening in your area? OR how do Vendors know
what
you need and how do you get your service / technical questions heard
by
all vendors?
Shutting them out isn't the answer to your mail problems! Roland's
answer
was eloquent! And, although we've discussed this often, nothing has
ever
evolved that is a better suggestion! If you don't like messages from
vendors, just filter them out, and having [Company:] in the subject
time
is a perfect way to do that!
I'm sorry, I just don't get it!! Why would you shoot yourself in
the
foot? Vendors - you can put my email address on your mailing list!!
Just
put [Company:] in the subject line! I'll filter them and decide what
I
want to read or not read later! Just like I filter this list!
