My feeling is that over the next six months or so the list should be
closed. This will give SMR professionals the chance actively to discuss
issues relating to their work practices as a group without involving too
many others.
Mailbase have given us a trial period of 9 months for this list. If we
want to keep it going after that we will need to open the group up to
academics and students. At which point we might think about converting
it to an open list. Personally I wouldn't like to run another separate
open SMR list at the same time as this closed one. Too confusing:)
I'm not sure how useful the Mailbase web site is to SMRs, more have
access to e-mail than the web. I'd be grateful if some of you would
take a look at the site and have a go at accessing and downloading the
files using either e-mail or the web.
web address: http://www.mailbase.ac.uk
e-mail: [log in to unmask] with the command
Index SMRforum (only message test)
You will then get a list of all files (SMR News 5-8)
email: [log in to unmask] with the command
get mime SMRforum filename
