Hey, <br>I was wondering if a groups-type list like the one transform tv uses might be a better model for the EC mailing list? That way you can opt to have daily or weekly digests which would avoid getting several emails related to issues that you might not be involved with directly, like this projector thing for example, which doesn't directly concern me, or the heated discussion about spam a few days back.<br>
Google groups is a good model.<br>Thoughts?<br>Yasmin<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 28 April 2010 22:26, Simon Yuill <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:simon@lipparosa.org">simon@lipparosa.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
We have an announcements list, which everyone on the members list is<br>
already subscribed to. So far it has been set up so that only the list<br>
moderator could post to it but I have freed up that restriction so all<br>
members should now be able to use it. So let's give it a go and see how<br>
people get on.<br>
<br>
Address to send to is:<br>
<br>
<a href="mailto:announce@electronclub.org">announce@electronclub.org</a><br>
<br>
All message son this list are tagged [ELECTRON_ANN] so should be easy to<br>
set up a filter on your emails accounts for them if you wish - I think Ben<br>
will cover this in his workshop for those who don't know how to do that<br>
......<br>

For the first message I will post news of Lucie's event this week at<br>
Govanhill Baths so you can see it in action (and apologies for those who<br>
have received it already).<br>
<br>
Would be good to see more than just art announcements, or Bob<br>
announcements, other people do interesting stuff as well I am sure!<br>
<br>
best wishes<br>
Si<br>
