Re: [OSList] Open Source Blockchain Investment may boom 5, 400% Return On Investment

[Michael Herman via OSList]

sometime around the turn of the millennium, chris corrigan penned answers
to many frequently asked questions.  then updated in 2004 and 2010.  not
rules, just a good summary of what had become common practice and
understanding on/about the list.  here's one specifically about "etiquette"
for posting to the list:


*5. What is the etiquette for posting to OSLIST?*

There are no hard and fast rules about what to post to OSLIST, but in
general people appreciate the following:

   - Questions about working with Open Space Technology
   - Answers to relevant questions
   - Stories about Open Space Technology meetings
   - Poems (there is a regular poetry contest that happens every six months
   or so)
   - Notices of upcoming Open Space Technology training or conferences
   - Resource material that may be of interest to Open Space Technology
   facilitators
   - Opportunities and calls for OST facilitators.
   - Introductions from new subscribers
   - Discussion about theories and ideas that can help to improve the
   understanding and practice of Open Space Technology
   - Experiences working with Open Space Organizations
   - Accounts of other ways of “opening space.”.
   - Posts in languages other than English are acceptable. OSLIST has
   readers who speak Cantonese, German, Swedish, Danish, Mandarin, Hindi,
   Russian, Portuguese, Hebrew, Haitian Creole, Spanish and French among
   others and items have been posted in several of these languages in the past.

In general, OSLIST users seem to prefer that people avoid the following:

   - Attachments. Please either post these to a website and provide the
   link to the list, or ask people to indicate if they wish to receive them
   off list. Viruses are sent as attachments, and so most people will
   routinely delete them if they are not sent personally.
   - Flaming. We are a pretty congenial group, and flaming is relatively
   unknown amongst us. It would be nice to keep it that way. If you have
   negative things to say about individuals it would be appreciated if you
   could keep them off list.
   - Virus warnings. If you absolutely feel the need to post a virus
   warning to the list please ensure that the warning is not a hoax by first
   checking with the Symantec AntiVirus?

   - Please try to avoid sending messages in HTML. Plain text is preferred
   on this list. All mail browsers have this option.
   - It must also be said that the jury is still out on small personal
   notes of appreciation or support to individuals. Some feel that these are a
   waste of bandwidth and add to an increasingly heavy personal email load.
   Others feel that personal messages of support sent to the list provide
   valuable affirmation to individuals by recognizing them within the
   worldwide community of Open Space Technology practitioners. It’s best to
   use your own judgment on this. If you do post notes like this to the list,
   be aware that the reception of others may be mixed.

Hi Michael,
thank you for posting lists of what you have realized that people prefer
and what people appreciate and using the term 'generally' as in no fixed
rules about conversation.

As I read your post, I reflected on what I prefer and why I have
participated on this list almost from the beginning. I am passionate about
freedome of speech accompanied by The Law of Two Feet, knowing I have
choice to focus on what I prefer to focus on and what I prefer to veer away
from with my energy. I am passionate about embracing diversity, inclusion,
and belonging hence I love being aware that space is open for diverse
perspectives, whether or  not they line up with my own. I am passionate
about being able to sit in silence, reflecting on what I have read, no
matter the post, knowing all of it is exactly what is meant to be, and all
can assist me in my growth and expansion, helping me to leave behind
limiting beliefs and thoughts.

I post to thai list when something is important to me to say, which may or
may not be important to anyone else. I open space for myself, for the
diversity within me, assuming both inclusion and belonging.

in appreciation,
with genuine contact,
Birgitt
