[R-meta] Posting to this list

Dear Wolfgang,

I read your recent post on these more general rules for the list and I 
agree with most of them. However, I have a problem with this bashing of 
people who do not have an official address. I worked for full 12 years 
as a German Hausfrau from home. I was nowhere affiliated, but 
nevertheless published as a researcher, together with my husband and his 
colleagues. At that time I even didn't have an e-mail address. Now I am 
retired, and when my contract as a guest scientist will end, I will lose 
my e-mail address and my affiliation and, if these are the rules, will 
not be allowed to post on this list. Please be aware that there are 
people who retire, or get unemployed, but still do research.

In short, why does it matter where we are affiliated?

Best,

Gerta
