Perhaps a pair of lists at this point. One moderated, the second open season. All 'off-topic' directly posted and items not accepted on the moderated list end up on the un-moderated list. The moderated list would handle the proposals posted by and responses moderated by the current recording secretar{y,ies}. Folks that see themselves as being prepared to work on working groups would keep notes/record what looks interesting on the open list. <chaim> >>>>> "CN" == Chris Nandor <pudge@pobox.com> writes: CN> I think much of the discussion on this list is utterly useless (from the CN> point of view of this list).
