To All,
As you may or may not have heard, the grapevine began receiving several letters and emails of anonymity concerns regarding the presence of a couple icons (Twitter and Facebook) on AAgrapevine.orgSeveral suggestions were made that the icons be removed until the AAGV board has a chance to have a further discussion at its upcoming July board meeting.
The AAGV board, via email poll, agreed to take this action. Our Executive Editor/Publisher has confirmed that our web development provider has removed the links.
We have already scheduled this as an agenda item at our meeting.
In Service,
Don Miller
AAGV Chairperson
