Where does one change the kind of topics they do and do not wish to
receive? I have been unable to find this option.

Happy folding, creasing, diagramming, and tessellating to all....

With a list of this size and traffic volume, it has never been an issue; no
one has ever asked for sub-topic-subscriptions.

The mailing list system we use for the list (Mailman) does have a ?topics?
facility built in, but it?s pretty complicated and - here?s the tricky part
- requires users to pay strict attention to adding keywords to the body or
subject of the messages. (Interesting side effect: any message without
keywords, or without anyone subscribed to those keywords, *will not get
delivered to anyone*.) Other than a rough idea of how it behaves, in fact,
I have no idea how it works in practice, having never had a list that used
it.

Given the list members? propensity (more properly, lack thereof) for
wanting to be constrained in their posting habits and/or doing anything in
particular to the content or format to get stuff to go through, plus the
current traffic volume, I?m disinclined to try to institute such a system
for this list.

That said, if a bunch of people are interested in it (perhaps sub-topics
would in fact make more people contribute? Who know?) and want to test it
out and/or propose such a change and what it would mean for this list, I?m
happy to set up a test list and give y?all admin access to its
configuration, and you can go off and try it.

Let me know!

Anne LaVin
