Title: Suggestion: networking glossary?
Post by: pctech on Nov 04, 2010, 14:10:36
Just wondered whether a networking glossary might be useful for this section.

I'm happy toi write one if people think its a good idea.

Is there any possibility of allowing me to be able to edit the post beyond the default time out so I can go back and add more later.

Unfortunately, no, Mitch. What you can do is copy to a new post and edit/modify/add, or let one of the staff have the material and tell us how you want it dealt with.

Excellent idea Mitch and many thanks for suggesting it. It is a topic full of impenetrable terminology and abbreviations. A glossary would be a great help.

I know we're all friends but holding hands is a step too far.  :o
