Good point - we haven't subscribed anyone to our announce list without their
knowledge, but there are times when we should be, erm, "spamming" far and
wide.
We have a list of contacts that we've just recently put together to mail our
big things to (fests, etc.), so I'll definitely keep it in mind for our next
few things.
[ We have a small problem with our 'normal' fests, in that most of them are
designed, or at least planned to be small. If you want to organise the next
fest and make it BIG, go for it! We had a small problem with the Installfest
last time, because no one wanted to come forward to coordinate it. It's not
too much work, but it's a crucial job to make sure everything's done right.
Thanks Dean! :) ]
