Dani: I looked at the site, and I couldn't even get far enough to figure out what you mean by "transition issues." It looks like you have to be a paid subscriber to view more than the first message in every thread.I put "transition" into the "Search DG" box, and several threads came up, but none of them mentioned "transition" in their thread title. I looked at a few threads that didn't seem to be about gardening, but none of the ones I looked at had the word "transition" in the first message.
Since I'm not THAT interested in gardening, I won't subscribe to Dave's Garden. But I would gladly pay $15 a year to subscribe to Mudcat. If a subscription system were started here, I think it should still be possible to VIEW anything free. But I would accept the restriction that non-members couldn't post.
So what was the transition all about?
