-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Edinburgh meeting - contemporary Scottish Galleries e-group Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2002 13:32:33 +0000 From: Variant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Edinburgh meeting - contemporary Scottish Galleries e-group (please pass on to the relevant person in your organisation, and please circulate to anyone you feel may wish to participate) Edinburgh meeting to establish a collective contemporary Scottish Galleries e-mail group Wed 27th Feb 4:30 pm Out of the Blue New Street Edinburgh Many thanks Leigh French ------------------------------------------------- Last Correspondence, Sent: 17.2.02 Many thanks to everyone who could make it along to the meeting to establish a collective contemporary Scottish Galleries e-mail group at Street Level Photoworks, Wed 13th Feb, and to everyone who e-mailed with support, apologies, suggestions. There has been overwhelming support for the the setting up of such a shared e-group. Concerns raised have been mainly about the level of traffic people might receive, receiving information that�s relevant to the individual, and too large file sizes. Suggestions have been to find an e-group set up that will allow: 1) the individual orgs to initially e-mail out to their existing contacts asking them to subscribe to the collective e-group 2) for the e-group to to be unmediated, relying on individual responsibility 3) for all orgs to have joint access as e-group owners 3) for the individual subscriber to be able to subscribe to particular aspects of info - such as openings, east coast, west coast, or all, etc. - which would mean categorising the info orgs send to the group 4) for a broad range of activity to be posted 5) that the e-group should not be for private/commercial speculation Info of something that would fit these requirements would be much appreciated. Suggested set-ups to look at are: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/ and MSN The Edinburgh face-to-face meeting to continue the discussion will be at Out of the Blue, the week beginning 25th Feb. I�ll forward full details asap when we have a definite date, and try to keep everyone updated. Many thanks again Leigh French -------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- a m b i t : networking media arts in scotland post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] info: send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and write "info ambit" in the message body -------------------------------------------------
