Thanks for your reply, and thanks to Blake too!
maybe I am just not able to use a mailinglist correctly. No doubt
mapswipe is an interesting tool and is related to HOT. But in my opinion
only urgend topics should go into a mailinglist.
Don't get me wrong: During the Nepal quake there were 20-30 mails a day
for more than a week. I'm absolutely fine with that. That was mostly
important, interesting and urgend stuff.
Ignoring is a good thing until your phone or mailapplication on the
computer keeps telling you about new emails. Constantly.
@Blake: Maybe I will join the announcement list and just subscribe to
this list when getting involved in desastermapping..
Thanks!

Your message really surprises me. MapSwipe is an app that was created
by MSF, to help save HOT's mappers time, so they can focus on mapping.
I think that's an interesting discussion thread. Not sure about the
others, but the way to read mailing lists is to look at the topics
that interest you and ignore the rest.

Hello everyone,
I am interested in information regarding HOT activations, the talk
about real HOT problems and some news regarding HOT, so I joined
this list about a year ago during the earthquake in Nepal.
Currently I found myself deleting nearly 98% of the messages of
this list even without reading it.
It's just crazy getting dozends of emails a day on topics having
nearly no intersection with HOT at all! e.g. "Bounding box not in
iD Editor anymore" or currently "Mapswipe - whats happening with
the data?". There are boards, where, in my optinion, general
discussions should take place but not on a mailinglist. A
mailinglist, thats the place where really urgend stuff should be
discussed.
Is there a HOT mailinglist that just focuses on important stuff?
with annoyed greetings
Julian
