Things seem to be moving a bit faster now :) All the MoMs' this month from hyd, bnglr and US have been progressive. Nice!
I agree with Prasanthi on replies to a particular qn should be mailed to the group. Even agreeing someone donot have the same qn in mind, they might still be interested in knowing more or see what ppl have to say to it. Coming to mail count...mm....our group is one such group where we are maintaining the scale on subject mails. We donot mail forwards...and we hardly have any mails that are fun intended (leaving mine once a while ofcourse). Even if we agree that we will strictly have only subject mails....will it considerably reduce the mail count?? I dont' think so. Since...right here is exactly where ppl put out their thoughts and at times it also gets into a debate...but a healthy one. When we say we expect volunteers to be active here...we expect them to acknowledge our mails and voice their opinions too...and now I on behalf of the group am also working on Volunteer Retention, which is in a way invitation to more mails. Perhaps having tags to the mails might help...but again...if all are tagged imp or very imp :) what do you do?? So....yes....please go ahead and see if you can find a solution to this. I am lost on how to decrease mails. More so I guess I would infact like mails coming in which would mean more n more active members. Also it is impossible to write one liners at times. These break up into more qns....or leave loose ends. I also believe that a group cannot work functionally on one-liners. There need to be some clear detailed mails and this itself will reduce some more mails..since it covers much of what others wanted to say perhaps too. So they can just say 'I agree'. My thoughts...and no offence meant to Raghu :) I seriously understand how hard it is to follow mails & not miss any...given ur work schedules. Lets c if someone comes up with a smart solution on this. I have a dead end here. -Divya PS: Do we have a Kanadiga in our Bangalore members? Good luck on learning Kannada. I can always be mailed if there is a qn on Bangalore Kannada. Like we have different telugus in Andhra...there is hubli, gulbargh, bangalore, mysore kannada and so on too. Some differ quite interestingly a lot from the other. I can speak good bangalore kannada...and can help out some of you if you need help that is :) ************************************************************************* --- In [email protected], raghu vamsi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Friends, > > The discussion of the Bangalore members is done for the month of April.

I have added the points we have discussed on the number of mails and the content in each mail. As the number of mails is getting increased, following the mails is getting difficult and hence we are not able to concentrate on the mails which needs our attention. This issue should be discussed and should be given high priority. > We people decided to learn the local language, Kannada, as we saw the language is a barrier to communicate. > The contributions from Bangalore members will be deposited to Prashanthi at once from Pavan Kumar to decrease the load on Prashanthi alone. > > Regards, > Bangalore MAD Members. > > > --------------------------------- > Jiyo cricket on Yahoo!
