Dear Chris,
I received your mail wondering about the future of the group. I've been a
sleeper on this group but I have enjoyed receiving the various postings and
have found it a good way to keep up with what is happening internationally.
So thanks for your work in setting up and running the group.
Unless it costs a lot in time or money, my preference is to keep the group
open. As a busy person (as most of us are, I suspect), I find it much
easier to have a mail plop into my in-box - and may even be stimulated to
reply to it - than to have to remember to check a website. My experience
with group newsletters is that contributions come in waves, particularly
stimulated by a meeting or conference, so activity may well step up again
after ZIST. But it is also good to know there is a forum where I can ask a
question, float an idea or relate an experience when I want to.
I think the name is good!
Blessings
Jen

Hi ,
I am just testing to see if this mailing group still works.
I was wondering if it would be helpful if I changed the name of the group to something shorter.
Maybe bulletin boards on the website where people could add there contributions to discussions on set discussions, would be a better option. New discussions can be added at any time , but old discussions remain amenable. All the relevant entries then stay together and accessible in one place. The downside is you don't get an email to tell you when there is something new. So I am just canvassing for interest in this option.
the final option is of course that this type of communication via the internet no longer interests people. In that case we can simply shut down the group. It may become relevant again at a later date
hasta la vista
