Hello,

I too have had an enormously difficult time joining this list.

I am did up connecting with someone who forwarded a message to the moderator on 
my behalf.

Marc send me a direct email invitation to join the list. I just have to accept 
it, and was immediately back on.

I believe the methods for joining these lists should be revised. Sending a 
subscribe message to the Google groups address generates an e-mail to the 
sender asking to write back a reason for joining the list.

Apparently this goes out for approval, but it's never reviewed by a moderator. 
This resulted in my request to join to be denied several times before I got 
really upset about my ability to join back on the list with a different email 
address.

This is discouraging for people who are trying to learn how to use new 
technologies.

I would recommend that the procedures for joining the list be revised to make 
it possible for people to join.
As ever,

Antonio
