Hi, Recently, there has been some discussion on the lists about the level of participation in SLUG, and a call to encourage involvement. One of the comments we've received is that the discussions of the SLUG committee are carried out on a closed list, and therefore quite opaque to most people - making it harder to join in.
As a way to correct this, we've decided to move most of our SLUG discussions from the committee list to an open list, and only keep the minimum (banking arrangements, for example) on the committee list. Rather than create a new list, we've changed the charter of the Festies list to 'Organisation and discussion of SLUG, meetings, "Fests" and workshop events.', and renamed the list to 'activities' (a small name change, to reflect the change in focus). This changeover was done today, and the new address is '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' ([EMAIL PROTECTED] will still work). If you'd like to get more involved in SLUG and the organisation of future activities please join [EMAIL PROTECTED] via the mailing lists link on the slug website (http://lists.slug.org.au). Cheers, Jan ( and the SLUG committee) -- Jan Schmidt [EMAIL PROTECTED]
