Mailing List Archive: Suggestion/Comments

One thing you can do to help out with the signal to noise
ratio might be to help spread the word about this list
and the premise behind it. If you work for a company or
organization that generates advisories, and other types of
intelligence it would also be great if you could get them
to also post them here.

I wanted to note something that I'm sure many people already
are aware of. Without moderating the list you're always
going to see alot of useless discussion. In the interests
of non-censorship and free disseminatin of information we
do NOT want to moderate or control anyone's ability to be
heard.

That being said, complaining about the noise only adds to
the noise.

Thanks!

PS .. would folks mind if we post the charter once a month
via an automated message, much like the sun-managers
mailing list?

Perhaps posting of the charter monthly would help remind folks of the
focus of the list and reduce not only signal to nooise, but offenses like
vacation messages to the list and such, not to mention html posts...

Of course, after a chater has been ratified <smile>...

thanks,

Ron DuFresne

OK, so you're a Ph.D. Just don't touch anything.
