I think there is scope for a london.pm social list Not moderated and where you can post emergency socials, informal meets and so on. Emails posted to the -announce list also go to other non-Perl announce lists. We shouldn't spam them too often. Indeed. The main issue I am aware is that announce - gllug-social list where it raises hackles from anti perl brigade.

AFAIC, the main list, plus announce is where these types of announcements belong. Emails posted to the -announce list also go to other non-Perl announce lists. We shouldn't spam them too often. Indeed. The main issue I am aware is that announce - gllug-social list where it raises hackles from anti perl brigade. Why would a social group not want to be informed of relevant, and usually very pleasant pubmeets? If they don't think it's relevant ot their interests, they can always unsub. Ben
