Dear David,
This is indeed an excellent list of discussion groups. For those with an
interest in health in low- and middle-income countries, I would like to
add HIFA2015 and our other four HIFA forums (below).
I would welcome other recommendations of health groups, especially in
global health. The information on health groups is highly fragmented and
confusing to users. Is anyone (other than David) doing anything to try to
make it easier for users to know what is and what isn't available in the
area of professional discussion groups on health issues? Especially in
global health / health care in low and middle income countries?
Best wishes,
Neil

I strongly agree that this group is invaluable and needs to remain in its
current format. It may be wise as well to back its content up on another
list server such as Google Groups or Yahoo Groups to make sure cotent is
not lost through one or another problem with the main
list.
.
It is hard to find lists of the same type as another list, but these
links if not leading to outdated discussion group listings may be of
interest to some on this list.

Dear David and
all,
This list is one of the best and
I would like to see it stay as it is. My only suggestion would be to have
increased moderation to identify and cut out spam.
Incidentally, I would be
interested to learn of any similar successful discussion groups (ie
discussing issues, in depth, on quality in health care at a global level)
that are primarily web-based rather than primarily email-based. My
experience to date is that the most dynamic, in-depth discussion groups
are primarily email-based rather than primarily
web-based.
Best wishes
Neil

This list is on an academic Listserv server, one that covers many or all
colleges and universities in Great Britain. It is my experience
that the many if not all of the discussion groups are
publically archived. Listserv permits
members to not receive mail through the option of "temporarily"
stopping mail which if not changed is in fact permanent. These lists are
not dividable
into threads, that, as far as I know is
not in Listserv software, I run several lists on the Temple University
Listserv server. Hence anyone can turn this list into a bulletin board by
either
not subscribing and reading this list on
the web in its public archives, or they can subscribe and set themselves
to get no mail and achieve the same result and the added benefit of being
able
to post to the list. A bulletin only
or website only based group puts all users at a disadvantage as they will
need to copy and paste any messages they want to keep in their own
files,
without, as I see it any counterbalancing
benefits. Such a decision would also remove this list from a very
prestigious and respected academic collection of excellent discussion
groups.
