Well, somewhere alon the way the purpose of the bookshare-discuss was
changed; I apologize for my confusion.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] More discussion list information!

Hi, 

I copied and pasted these descriptions directly from the Freelists site:

Bksvols-discuss: Bookshare.org's volunteer community uses this mailing list
to discuss their efforts to grow the collection of accessible books. Members
may use this list to help one another with technical issues, to make
scanning and submission suggestions, and to get to know one another better.

Bookshare-discuss: This is the place to discuss your use and questions
concerning Bookshare.org, a project of the Benetech Initiative. Benetech
builds Technology for Humanity. Bookshare.org enables those with
print-related disabilities to legally share copyrighted text in alternative
electronic formats as prescribed in the Chaffee Amendment to U.S. Copyright
Law. The list is open to members, subscribers and others interested in
learning about or sharing their experiences.

As you can see from these explanations, they don't suggest that either list
is for "off-topic" chitchat. My apologies for not including the
Bookshare-dicsuss explanation in the previous email! I can subscribe anyone
interested, but I will mention that I'm subscribed to both and the
bksvols-discuss list seems to be much more active for whatever reason.

Best, 

Madeleine Linares
