Awesome! Thanks Chris! I've updated http://evergreen-ils.org/listserv.php to point to the archives of this mailing list. > To be clear, (and I'm saying this to the community as a whole, not > necessarily to you, Dan) the goal has never been to be a "closed" or > "exclusive" group, but to keep communication at a manageable level.

Right, I think that the "manageable size" problem gets introduced when we use conference calls to communicate rather than mailing lists. Conference calls don't scale! And we didn't exactly get a deluge of responses to the first draft of the rules of governance, so hopefully we'll be able to migrate the bulk of the discussion over here. Thanks again, Dan
