Okay, but please start with a clone of the subscriptions
so we don't have to manually subscribe both to recreate
the status quo.
Also, please put an automatic Reply-To: in the announcements
that leads to the discussion list. I personally would still
merge both streams into the same folder because I find it
interesting whenever libtech people have a comment to add to
a piece of news.
Agree with this.
- An e-mail with news every 10 minutes may be too much. Wouldn't
it be better to have a daily news digest of some sort? Then anyone
could start a discussion based on it.
I guess most of us absorb the "news" by just grasping what
the subject line says, then decide what is worth digging
into. A digest format would impede that kind of fast absorption.
Anyone who prefers digests can still choose the digest feature
of the mailing list software... right?
Yes, as long as the Twitter news is sent to a list that doesn't include
the discussions per se (or are flagged with a [Twitter] tag in the
subject line so they can be filtered.)
Cheers,
JMM.
