I am starting up Linux International again, and even though I have a free basic membership, the people will have to register to join. After all, this is not much different than signing up for some mailing list. One of the things of a "membership" organization is that you have to define what a member is (and sometimes how to get rid of members). I think that having a person register as a member, then perhaps "tick off" on a web-based membership form what mailing lists associated with which email addresses they wish to have might be a way to go. And the registration form should probably have one of those graphical "type in what you see" to help keep down the auto-registration people. md -- Jon "maddog" Hall Executive Director Linux International(R) email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 80 Amherst St. Voice: +1.603.672.4557 Amherst, N.H. 03031-3032 U.S.A.
