(the original confidential business proposal removed) Hello, It was my impression that the list maintainers were considering making this list moderated, or open only to subscribers. Is there a decision on that? Thanks konst
The current plan is to filter via spews. We could go to member-only posting if that's what people want but it means that students asking their homework questions will have a harder time :-). Plus if the list is redistributed that's another problem. Our original spam filter was generating complaints so we've turned it off until we get the spews filter up and going. Send me comments and suggestions - I'm no expert in this area. John

Surely that's a good thing! Maybe they will go to the people who are paid to help them, or maybe even try themselves, rather than posting their assigned questions verbatim to the list. On the other hand, maybe they will subscribe to the list and continue as before. Regards, Jim
