HefNet is the New Zealand based Home Education Foundation email list discussion NETwork.

Established in July 1998, this group has expanded quickly and includes home educators with a wonderfully diverse range of political, religious, philosophical, and methodological views. This mix makes for some red-hot yet edifying debates!

No blatant advertising in posts of new books by those selling the resources. Of course people will mention this or that resource and rave about it positively or negatively. Spiteful negative criticisms are not to be posted, but honest criticism is part of free speech. Making reference to where one may acquire any resource is always helpful to other readers, but if the one making the reference is also the one selling the resource, reference to only one resource will be allowed. However, sellers of resources can answer honest, genuine questions about their resources; or better yet, simply make reference to their own website.

Advertising in one's signature is OK, but please limit it to a simple by-line plus a website.
