[Imc-birmingham] Pending subscription requests

[phunkee at aktivix.org]

Hi,

After talking about the lack of participation on this list is was 'consensed'
that we purge the list of inactive members and invite them to join our
annoucements list. So a couple of weeks ago this list was 'purged' of all the
people that haven't constructively contributed to this mailing list in the last
couple of months.

Since then we have a request for someone to join the list that wasn't a member
before. I floated an idea that we could restructure our imc by asking people to
introduce themselves and ask what they'd like to get involved with. I know this
happens on some indymedia lists - the new imc list asks people to introduce
themselves. We could also do this with existing list members who aren't as
active as they'd like to be too.

Is this is a good idea, or should we just let people sign up?

It's worth bearing in mind that we do have the annoucements list for people who
want to keep informed with what we're doing but don't want to commit to working
on this project.

What do people think?
