Does anyone know where Stock Market Watch and Demeter's Weekend Round up has gone?

[KoKo]

I can't find Demeter on any of the Finance or Economic Forums. I don't know if there will be a place for "SMW" anymore.

Anyone know?

1. they always put SMW in latest breaking

2. PBD is testing SMW now in DU3's latest breaking news

WEE is still back in DU2 here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=103x642216

4. SMW got locked out of LBNews jsut now.

"This discussion thread was locked by greyl (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum) on Sun Dec 11, 2011, 10:59 AM. It was locked for the following reason:

This discussion thread violates the Statement of Purpose for the Latest Breaking News forum. (Statement of Purpose: Post the latest news from mainstream news websites and blogs. Important news of national interest only. No analysis or opinion pieces. No duplicates. News stories must have been published within the last 12 hours.

I suggested maybe posting SMW in this group.

3. I looked all over for the Weekend Economists this AM - no luck.

Have no idea - evidently it did not transition over? No clue.

5. I'm working on getting them in this group.

The other option would be Good Reads.

Some of the LBN Hosts have gone ultra-orthodox about the SOP. ( As, I feared they would. )

6. SMW thread now locked in Late Breaking

Can't find WEE in DU3 - Perhaps a combined SMW/WEE Group under Economy & Education is in order?

7. I' ve been thinking on this IA.

It could be organized by posting a new SMW thread each day and a WEE each weekend.

Or the same could be done here in Economy. ( with dixiegirl's permission, of course. )

8. I PM'd PBDot to consider here.

And, PBDot says he/she will not be able to continue the Report much longer anyhow,
I am hoping someone else can step up to the plate.
My plate is full, unfortunately.

[Hugin]

9. Unfortunately, same here.

But, if PBD will forward me the template I will get it into a DU3 friendly format and maintain it for a short time until a new leader can be found.

Demeter doesn't really have a template per-se. All you need to do is tell her where to start her thread.

10. Would you like to PM PBdot and offer?

It would be a blessing to have the Report continue, cause I think lots of news is coming down the pike!

11. Will do DG.

But, first I'm going to start a skeleton SMW here for tomorrow morning. Cuz there's NO WAY this is going to be sorted out by then.

And the SMW flag will not fall on my watch!

12. Thanks Much!

Sad it come to this. "SMW" has been a DU Institution since Ozy started it then PBD... Demeter has great links to news that does effect us with the Markets, Economy, Investigations of the Banksters, Crooks and Liars.

I think it would be very bad to see this cut out of the New DU-3.

Thanks for trying to organize a way for folks to still view both.

13. No problemo, KoKo.

[KoKo]

14. BTW: I used to be on "SMW" when "Up-In-Arms" and "54 A Nickle" and some of you were over there ..

years ago when Ozy first started it.

So that's why I hope it keeps going. I've lurked on and off since...but it's important to keep this going here, imho... anyway.
