Andrew, I can see how you might see the private list as secretive, devious, or underhanded. I just see a private list as a necessity, I couldn't imagine the % increase in e-mail traffic if the pmc list was open to anyone, or it was carried on the general list. There are enough tangential conversations on the pmc list now, so say doubling the number of posters could increase the volume to 3-4X what it is now. If you feel strongly enough about it, if you wanted to create a digest of what was said by sifting through all the emails here and post it on general daily that would be ok by me. -Rob -Rob --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
