Hi everybody,
I've polled the Digital Imaging SIG twice on the topic of the
dedicated SIG list, and the first time (about a year ago), there were
quite some voices in favor of keeping the individual lists. I think
people felt we hadn't given it a fair try yet (the lists were still
fairly new), and eventually the list would have the momentum to
sustain worthwhile discussions. We even appointed a list moderator at
MCN Las Vegas, but we still couldn't get people to adopt the list in
a significant way. When I asked again about a month ago, I didn't get
a single defender for the SIG list. I think it's sound judgement at
this point to fold the SIG lists back into the general list - a nice
side-effect of which would be that it may re-vitalize the general
list.
Cheers,
Guenter
