Since private spaces are key to communities of practice[1], what if we explicitly delete the archives after the list has served it's purpose? This could support all the goals Mel laid out, and emphasize the timely aspect of the situation.
Just wanted to circle back on this: I think this situation will work, and I propose September 1, 2012 as a date for this, since this effectively gives us a school year to talk, and a summer to wrap up, summarize, and move archives.
Unless flaming cannons begin shooting across the list in response to this date, that's what'll happen.
Thanks for the discussion, everyone. :) --Mel _______________________________________________ tos mailing list tos@teachingopensource.org http://lists.teachingopensource.org/mailman/listinfo/tos
