We really should use the community-info<at>apache.org response from ezmlm to show the intent of the "community" list. This should go out with the Welcome message and be thereafter available via the ezmlm commands.
This is the response that i get from the listname-info and listname-faq commands of every list that i tried. "No information has been provided for this list." Perhaps that purpose should have been well-defined before the call to vote on whether "community" list be open or closed. If the list ends up being wide-open, then we will certainly need a clear statement of intent, otherwise we end up with way too much babble. I know that there are various tidbits on scattered webpages that give very brief explanation of some of the lists. This needs to be drawn together and further detail added for each. The "-info" commands could provide a precis, then provide the URL for further info. --David
