I too am finding the content a pain in the ass lately. This is not a pub
where you can piss and moan about your life, but a professional resource.
I appreciate that Eric and Deb cannot police everything, so we may have to
change the way this list operates.
My suggestions:
1. Perhaps we can force a bit more categorization, so we can delete messages
in larger bulk. I was on the copyedit listserv for quite a while and they
used a set of standard tags in the headings. We could use the following
(suggestions only):
TECH
SOFTWARE
PROCESS
PLATONIC RANT :)
2. Make it a subscription service. That way the Rays may be able to afford
to monitor traffic more closely.
Thanks,
Henry
