&gt; &gt;Is a digest form of the list available for those that like to read,
&gt; &gt;and comment occasionally? Personally I destest digests (it makes it
&gt; &gt;hard to reply and include previous message text), but for those that
&gt; &gt;are less active (the lurkers), a digest option might be great.
&gt; 
&gt; I can do digests -- actually the list *is* currently generating them,
&gt; its just not sending them anywhere.  I hope to wrap up the testing and
&gt; final touches for digests this w/e.  I'll announce here then how to
&gt; subscribe to the digest version.

Groovy. This'll definitely help the folk who read more than they write, to
the list, I think. :)
 
&gt; &gt;Also, subject lines - if people can keep them really relevant to the
&gt; &gt;post at hand, it'd help, I reckon (for instance, I delete the
&gt; &gt;language posts on the spot, since I don't have interest in the
&gt; &gt;thread). Some of them drift away, but the subject doesnt change (ie
&gt; &gt;the RP Thesis thread).
&gt; 
&gt; You want to try and flaunt years and years of honoured Usenet
&gt; tradition, let alone the minor history of this list?  Best 'o luck.

Well, tradition aside, it doesn't really make sense to post about
food/drink in a post whose title doesn't fit in with that at all (ie a
virtual room title.. I don't think this actually happened, but its
conceivable), just because the new evolved from the former. Much more
sensible, IMHO, to change it to Food/drink (was Virtual rooms), then
everyone knows what theyre reading, and where it came from. :)
