Important: Updated Policies

[Monica Biswas]

Hello YouthLearn-ers!

As a result of feedback we received from members of the YouthLearn
community, we have made two changes to the policies of the discussion list.

1**  If you "reply" to a post, it will automatically reply to the entire
YouthLearn list.  If you'd like to post privately to an individual, please
type in their email address.

2**  We have updated our policies with regard to posts which reference or
request commercial products.  Thanks greatly to those who offered their
opinions and feedback.  Here are the updated policies as a result of your
feedback:

-Discussion of commercial products are welcome if they give context of how
they were used: i.e. what setting, what population, and the 'pros' and
'cons' of using that product.
-Unsolicited commercial posts are not welcome, although in the future, we
may consider having a separate list for those interested in that type of
thing.
-There was not much comment about posts which contain questions asking for
commercial product recommendations.  They will be posted to the list.
-YouthLearn does not review or endorse the products mentioned on the
discussion list.

Thanks again!  and we welcome your feedback at any time!
Monica
