I have lurked here for a few weeks before writing this. I run/own/operate/adminster/whatever a 200+ subscriber unmoderated list for babershop harmony singers in Michigan, and am an active participant in our international harmony society list of 2000+. I may start a new list later this year as a special-interest subset of our international list. I started two years ago, read a document on user and list owner commands, wrote the FAQ/charter myself and have simply learned by doing since then. In joining this list (saw it referenced in Yahoo magazine ... with no hyphen in the e-dress!), I'm hoping to learn over time whether I'm doing things right and how I can do them better. Would anyone with experience in small lists consisting of non-professionals be interested in reading my FAQ and making suggestions for condensing, changing, adding? With not much comparative criteria to go on, I sometimes think it's too long (18K) and may not be simple enough in some cases for people who aren't computer-literate. As they say, "please respond privately, not to the list." <G> tanx muchly, jim styer, Battle Creek MI, PioNet administrator-- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Pioneer District, Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barber Shop Quartet Singing in America, Inc.
