[Listwork] EN] Mailing List Consolidation Proposal -- Discussion and Clarification

[Guamanian]

Hi jb;

The proposal may not be a good idea, but it is a serious proposal.

Here is the history:

bht first raised it on the listwork list in June: 
http://archives.lists.indymedia.org/listwork/2004-June/010145.html

Then I supported it in a post later that month: 
http://archives.lists.indymedia.org/listwork/2004-June/010241.html

Then jb told me to take it to imc-process:
http://archives.lists.indymedia.org/listwork/2004-June/010244.html

So I did: 
http://archives.lists.indymedia.org/imc-process/2004-June/005917.html

Then the wiki page was created, I believe, by JohnWindmueller: 
http://docs.indymedia.org/view/Global/ListRestructuringProposal

Then I posted the 'list-of-lists' message, which attempted to clarify 
which lists were included in the proposal: 
http://lists.indymedia.org/pipermail/imc-process/2004-July/0712-07.html

Since then, I've received feedback on which lists are being used, and I 
plan to follow up with a revised list of exactly which lists should be 
included in the proposal.

If I have misunderstood the procedure for making a proposal, or if I 
have mis-communicated bht's original intention, or otherwise screwed up, 
  it is not intentional it is due to my being new at working at the 
global level.

Solidarity and Apologies;

- Guamanian
