[nc-intake] NC read-only list access by mail

[Alexander Svensson <svensson@icannchannel.de>]

Dear NC Intake Committee,

in line with the MP3 access to NC teleconferences
(thanks to Bret), I would like to ask the NC to
provide *read-only* access to the Names Council
mailing list (council@dnso.org) by e-mail.

Some very interesting discussions are taking place
on the Names Council list, but even though they
are public, the technical access is somewhat
complicated: The discussions are only available
via the Web archive, with every message on a
separate Web page -- which makes is very hard to
follow the discussions on a regular basis.

However, it would be possible to provide read-only
access to the NC list: As before, only certain
persons (Names Council members, DNSO Secretariat,
ICANN Staff and Board, General Assembly Chair and
Alternate Chair, Names Council Meetings' Scribe,
NC Working Group's Co-Chairs) are allowed to *post*
on the list, but others may receive the postings by
mail. Something similar is done for the General
Assembly mailing list: People may subscribe to
ga-monitor@dnso.org to receive postings without
becoming a GA member, e.g. for automatic archiving.

This would make it much easier to follow the issues
on the NC agenda!

Best regards,
/// Alexander
