Hi Guys,
Here are a few things I would like to see in the FAQ.
Section 1: Code of Conduct
1) what topics are considered to be on-topic for this list.
2) What to do with off topic material.
3) What is considered to be a flame or other abusive posts.
4) What action will be taken if posts are considered to be spam, flame,
off-topic or any other form of abuse.
Section 2: How To
1) Unsubscribe.
2) respond to a post off-list.
3) Post a request for help. I.E. what to include in the post.
4) Report abuse.
This is by no means a complete list, just a few things I'd like to see.
HTH
Regards,
James

Subject: FAQ for the list
I think the best thing is to open t his up to the user community and see
what they think we should include? What say all of you?

I would need to know what you wish to address. I would assume things
like:
What is off topic for this list? What kind of topics are discussed?
etc.
Also, what format would you want it in, html?

My two cents on this .... I think the recent list problems have
mainly
been due to how people have been using the list rather than due to
limitations of the FreeLists technology, which seems to work well
for
the
JAWSScripts, Program-L, and other lists. I agree that is dumb for
list
server software to get confused by the word "subscribe" in the
subject,
and other such anomalies, but think they have generally been rare
and
not
interfered with the general functioning of the list. I think that
changing to Yahoo or Google sounds like it would create as many
problems
as it solves. I suggest we stay with FreeLists but try to manage
the
human interface better, including more regular intervention by the
moderator, less flaming, and perhaps monthly reminders about list
commands, and a FAQ if we can find a volunteer to write one.
