Re: should we kill this list?

this is a great idea!

maybe you could have a list-killing party. other people could come and kill their own living-dead lists. or living-dead myspace profiles. or people could even create lists just to be killed. etc. halloween-style...

originally, the public school had 2 lists with 2 purposes:

- announcements: for weekly announcements and the like
- deliberations: for discussions relating to how the school is run

the announcements list does what its supposed to do (announce)
but the deliberations list seems to have died. i think the reason for
this is that the committee uses a private list for doing really mundane
scheduling matters or things that probably ought to remain private
(like discussing what rare scotch to buy with school profits)

my guess is that it required too much thinking to split up emails into
parts that truly only concerns the committee and parts that would be
of interest to everyone who cared enough to sign up for the deliberations
list, so it slowly all drifted into the private committee list.

so --- maybe this list should be killed? or maybe the best way to revive
it is to have a discussion about whether it should be killed!

(otherwise, sorry about this living dead list sending out that email for
phenexic.com yesterday!)
