<BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">
<P><FONT size=2>Folks,</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT size=2>Our mailing list is pretty low volume. It mostly consists of
group announcements. And as no one is actively complaining, I'm fairly
confident we're happy with the current signal to noise ratio. But as someone
pointed out to me, there might be an impression that the list is only for
official announcements...</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2>Is this the general opinion? No one wants to be innundated
with more emails which need to be filtered... But it begs the question: What
types of topics do you all think are appropriate material for the mailing
list? Are there any lurkers that'd come out of the shadows long enough to
comment and perhaps make a suggestion or two? </FONT></P>
