I vote for #2. There are clearly people interested in getting these messages, and there should be a standard way for anyone to get them. On the other hand, there are people generous enough to contribute their time and attention to plt-dev, and if they don't want a deluge of [what is to them] spam, they shouldn't have to put up with it from us. --Carl _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://list.cs.brown.edu/mailman/listinfo/plt-dev
