Steve/Dan,
 
It is a bit difficult to find the TechNet archives page. We created a page on our Web site with the most recent posted TechNet questions, and also simple links to: Join IPC TechNet, Post A Message, or Search TechNet Archives. See: http://www.circuittechctr.com/general/forums.htm.
 
It certainly would help if IPC could promote these TechNet pages a bit more.

Subject: [TN] Suggestion to IPC, was Re: [TN] NTC Gold Plating Electroless vs. Immersion

Hi Steve,
 
Enter the URL that you mentioned will not immediately get you to the Technet-archives search page. Actually it takes three more choices and mouseclicks to get to http://jefry.ipc.org/scripts/wa.exe?S1=technet, which is the correct page.
I can imagine that people cannot find this, and then they'll just ask by posting to the forum.
A suggestion to the IPC people: add the text "the Technet archives can be searched at http://jefry.ipc.org/scripts/wa.exe?S1=technet" to the footer of all emails. Could save some bandwidth, and it will help everybody who hasn't already bookmarked the URL.

Hey Rudy,
You're not the only one repeating yourself.  It seems that the same
questions are being asked  without an individual first checking the
archives.  Maybe that's too time consuming for some folks or others may not
be aware of the search query capability at
http://www.ipc.org/html/fsresources.htm
<http://www.ipc.org/html/fsresources.htm> .
And last but not least, thank you for your continued inputs even though you
may be repeating yourself!

I swear I am going to copy what I am writing here, so I can simply paste it
into a message, as I retype this about once every 6-12 months when this kind
of question comes up.
