All Folked Up - quite true there has been some griping. At least it means people really care about this festival.... a lot. And as is quite normal with all humans, change is often met with some negative feedback.
Please don't take it to heart. I should think the new system for steward application will run more smoothly next year. My only problem with it, was the photo upload didn't like the browser I used. So I switched from google chrome to internet explorer and it worked a treat. Sometimes it is something so simple as you mentioned with emails being dumped into junk folders or my browser prob. So if we discuss here, we can sort each other's technical issues out.
