Hmm, interesting, I've never bothered subscribing to that list. I assumed it was a moderated announcement list that I wouldn't be able to post to myself, i.e. it would be a one-way list only. My assumption was most likely based on my experience with Debian announcement lists. I have a hard time seeing a point in having that list: - there should be no discussions on the list, and - people suggest that announcements be X-posted to haskell-cafe. Hmm, so what is posted to [email protected] that a subscriber to haskell-cafe would be inerested in? /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
