RE: [ga] NCtelecon 9 May 2001, minutes
Since
my comment on the NC re the need to establish procedures for the creation of
email lists has been reported on this list (see below), I want to make a point
of clarification.
I have
heard a lot of comment on this list about the time it took to set up new email
lists. While is true that, IF the tech person is given all the
relevant information relating to list rules and administration, it is a
relatively quick and simple matter to create a new list. However, a lot of
time can be wasted if the relevant information relating to list rules (if any)
and admin is not provided and needs to be collected. Procedures are
needed so that people requiring the creation of new lists are aware of the
information they should provide to the tech responsible for creating new lists
and not put the onus on the Secretariat or tech support to spend time chasing up
the information.

On 20:58 28/05/01, DNSO
Secretariat said:
Ph. Sheppard
expressed some concern as to process leading to the
newly created GA mailing lists, set up on GA
Chair request. The lists were established before
the NC had a chance to approve them. He felt NC
approval was needed as there is a cost implication (set up
represented 20 hours of DNSO secretariat work
and there is around 2 hours for daily
maintenance). He proposed one practical cost saving would be
closure on the under-used GA open list
which duplicates the normal GA list.
NC members agreed and P.Sheppard will talk with
the GA chair on this. Well done! BTW no vote ...
E. Roberts agreed
with the concern and pointed out that no
information was given prior to a setting up of
the lists as to their chair or moderator. She
asked for the process to be clarified. Dear Erica. May be she
might give a local call to Patrick?
Deep thanks to everyone
involved ....
