As do I. Maybe the FOI & DPA list should be amalgamated thus reducing
the 'apologies for cross posting' and two different discussions on the
same subjects

Also, I do want to hear about DP or even FoI sessions on this list
without having to enter another...

The suggested new list ([log in to unmask]) is
hardly likely to satisfy the criteria for new JISC mailing lists:-
http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/mailinglists/criteria.htm
While we are on the subject of what is valid subject matter for the
current list, am I the only member who feels that the stated criteria
are probably not currently being met & that perhaps the list is now
dominated by issues that have little to do with HE? It is hard to see
how the recent war against BT conducted on this list could be seen to
"benefit UK education, learning and research related organisations".
