I notice that academics who are currently holding the online
conference described above (and selected portions of which Mr. Jackie
Foo <foo@swipnet.se.) posts on SANET) use the term "micro-farming"
for what is really the usual way people farm.

Jackie has already posted on that conference my message questioning
the use of the term. I would like to request Jackie to report back to
us if these academics have continued to use the term or if they
acknowledge this misnomer.
