Re: DIS: Mailing lists act strange
Yes, I am subscribed to all lists already, but I sent my registration in BUS about 7 hours ago, and nobody has reacted yet. My spam folder is empty by the way.

DIS: Mailing lists act strange
Hello, The mailing lists of Agora are acting strange. I wanted to register, and I got a mail back with BUS: in the subject line, but I do not receive other mails from the mailing list, while I got a "Welcome to the agora-discussion mailing list"-mail. Does anybody know why this is? Ludwig

Re: DIS: Voting
Thanks, this answers a lot of my questions. But how does VVLOP work? And is the system with Props and Pilots etc. still in use?

Can anybody explain how voting exactly works at Agora? I have read all of the rules today, but this stays a bit unclear to me. Tomas
