We were discussing a policy for list behaviour, which to date has not been necessary.

No, but the majority of subscribers (and definitely the list admins) prefer open posting to the SLUG mailing list, leaning towards more anti-spam work than moderation work. If you see the following thread from today, you can see that we're doing an awesome job: http://lists.slug.org.au/archives/slug/2002/08/msg00563.html Again, this is orthogonal to a list behaviour policy. - Jeff -- "It's not sufficient to 'use simple words to explain things'.
