RE: [Removals] Re: Remove me from these lists please! Why Not..

Considering the trafic now a days, it makes more sense to form usenet news groups I guess.  This used to need a process involving a a few steps and some time.  I guess the steps are RFD (Request for Discussion) to create  a news group which includes the proposed name and the purpose (what will be discussed on this news group) etc., for a few weeks, then seek a vote and then create it.  I guess this will definitely save us all the head ache of cleaning up our mailboxes which get full in no time with so many messages.  Makes sense? -----Original Message----- From: John Bristor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 03, 2002 4:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Removals] Re: Remove me from these lists please! Why Not.. Using email lists and/or email distribution lists are not conducive to long term projects and/or the sharing of information.   Why can't there be a web-based forum?   Email lists have their place, but they are not conducive to historial archives or long term projects.   Anyone that joins today, cannot see, search, or benefit from discussions of just a week ago, let alone.. months ago..   The need for this will increase exponentially over the next 18 months.  WEDI needs a web based forum and drop this email method of communication.   ********************************************************************** To be removed from this list, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please note that it may take up to 72 hours to process your request. ===================================================== The WEDI SNIP listserv to which you are subscribed is not moderated.
