Hi, first.. I hope I'm "in the right place" to mail for assistance? Please re-direct accordingly. 2 queries. One relates to my own "person-notes"..when printing "detailed ancestral report" my own notes do not appear. If I print an individual report..they do. All others appear to be fine. Why ..and how to fix. 2nd.how to get addresses to show.in "detailed ancestral report"? and can I link images to those addresses? (Meaning that.I have inserted addresses-and-images and they too don't show?...what am I not doing?) Thanks. Brian. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... |

Also a lurker. :-) I suspect that a large part of the diversity of expectations is generational - amusingly appropriate for this particular list. Those of us who were using mail lists 50 years ago have a set of expectations which doesn't match that of those who grew up using the world wide web. Taking myself as an example... * I assume everyone on a list knows who I am - or at least my name and email address. If I participate actively, they will get to know lots of other things. * I don't expect a lot of features, like topical breakdowns, which might be found on a forum. * I assume that I have to handle my own subscription using the more or less standard email interface. * I also know that different listservs have slightly different conventions for management, which I expect to find in a footer. I'd venture to guess that anyone using a mail list rather than some more recent comm channel, like a forum or chat interface, is doing so through personal preference.

Hello Wilmer, > I am absolutely new to Gramps and have just downloaded the app. Before beginning, I am wondering if this app can upload Brothers Keeper files. Can anyone help me get started on bringing BK files into Gramps? Thank you! Since Gramps can not read Brother's Keeper files, you need to create a GEDCOM file from your BK tree. And if you have more than one tree in BK, you must create GEDCOM files for all. When you've done that, you can create a new tree in Gramps, and import the GEDCOM file(s) into that. You may see errors when you do that, and they may be hard to avoid. I just looked at a tree that I once imported from BK 5.2, and in that, it seems that Gramps didn't understand page numbers found in sources. You may see other types of errors when you work with BK 7.5. Regards, Enno |

There is a superficial discussion about trying to import a Brother's Keeper backup file on a Mac. (Which has 2 problems: Brother's Keeper doesn't have a Mac version; importing from BK needs to be done with GEDCOM, not backup files.) The thread suggests an approach. Since 2020, the Discourse-based forum has become the preferred community-based Gramps support over the maillist. (Although the maillist archives have more archived answers.) https://gramps.discourse.group/t/importing-brothers-keeper-dt7-backup-files/2363 On Monday, September 18, 2023 at 11:12:52 AM CDT, Bret Busby <br...@bu...> wrote: On 18/9/23 23:52, Wilmer Fawcett wrote: > I am absolutely new to Gramps and have just downloaded the app. Before beginning, I am wondering if this app can upload Brothers Keeper files.

Long time lurker here. Email list servers and which one gramps-users should use is a valid subject of discussion. However, I believe it would be prudent to open a new thread or move it into a smaller off line discussion with someone reporting back here to the larger list. As a veteran of several discussions like this (vi vs emacs comes to mind), I’d like to see fewer opinions like “I had a bad experience with xyz” and more like “that list server does not maintain good archives and the admin interface is clumsy”. I am seeing that different users have different expectations about what a list server should do, and their opinions about whether a list server is good or bad are colored by those expectations. And just for my personal side note, I am on a couple of groups.io lists and I maintain one. For our purposes of general email with reasonable subscription mechanics, they are reliable and work fine. -deborah bennett Please update your contacts list with my new address de...@zi...

My mother and brother used Brothers Keeper for years before I started looking at Gramps around 2005. My mother was able to export her data to a GEDCOM file which I then imported into Gramps with no problems.

No. You can also unsubscribe by sending an email to "gra...@li..." with the word "unsubscribe" in the subject line. Send an email to this address with "help" in the subject lines for more details. Alternatively you can send an email to "gra...@li...". This should also unsubscribe you, but I haven't tested it. Nick. |

I'm on groups.io too, and know Bret from at least one other list there, and it's just as easy to use as this list on SF, or the older ones on Yahoo. Web forums have lots of different (sub)groups, which make them hard to use, and the email interface on Discourse is more complex too, so I see the point about forums in general. It does not apply to groups.io though, or Google groups for that matter. Regards, Enno |

When I go to the user management section it displays the message: --- Member emails are now private As a result of the latest electronic messaging and privacy requirements around the world, SourceForge has implemented a number of changes that affect email privacy. One part of this is that it is no longer possible for project admins to view the member emails of their mailing lists. The SourceForge mailinglist admin pages for your project will allow you to remove a specific email address and to change the moderated status of the subscribed emails. --- Using the admin page to remove an email address always gives the same response: "If that email address was on the list, it has now been unsubscribed." This policy also makes migration to another provider difficult. The best we could do is announce the new list address in the old list. Nick. |

Yes, I understand. People who subscribe to mailing lists, and, sit in the background, observing, but, not actively participating, are generally referred to as lurkers, without any aspersion on their nature. I am also a lurker on a number of lists - it is a good way to monitor what is happening, and, to discover new and helpful information, that, sometimes, a person is not aware of the information, to ask about it, or, otherwise, it has not occurred to a person that the information might exist. Sometimes, it can be difficult, to know how many lurkers want to stay, and, to stay as lurkers, and, how many are not really bothered as to whether they stay subscribed, and, some might have done something like subscribed from a new address, without unsubscribing the old address, and, some simply direct all mail from a mailing list, into a dead end folder, without ever seeing the messages. This is not an adverse reflection on lurkers, it is simply an observation of things that may occur on mailing lists. It is unfortunate that sourceforge has deemed fit to eliminate necessary mailing list maintenance functionality from the mailing list, as, being a mailing list administrator or moderator, is a volunteer office, and, can be troublesome enough, without mailing lists hosts making the task more difficult than it needs to be. ..

So do all their lists now rely exclusively on the web interface for users to unsubscribe themselves? This is a problem for people who get a new email address but lose access to their subscribed address before they have a chance to unsubscribe. I wonder what the "privacy reasons" were. > We can no longer see a list of our subscribers.

A different list system would seem to be a good idea. The problem is usually continuity — sourceforge seemed like a good idea at the time.

So long as it has robust list management and isn't going to disappear or be bought up by a predatory VC. They do have a Mailman migration tool. Keeping the archive of messages is probably important for users, especially newcomers, who want to search it to find helpful messages. Peter |
