Either on-list or off-line, as appropriate, I'd be interested to hear about
your experience. The tech/web writing segment of the National Writers
Union, of which I'm a member and about to be a Local co-chair, is starting
to look closely at contract agency issues (and contracting in general) and
what we may be able to do to help our members in these areas. It's very
helpful to know specific examples of bad (or good) behavior to help us
create a frame of reference.

(And I'd welcome hearing from others willing to share agency, or other
contracting, experiences.)

Thanks.
