[Eg-oversight-board] Oversight Board Discussion List - Decision Needed

Tue May 29 21:36:34 EDT 2012

Lori-

Two things:

You have a typo here:

The lists are also archived archived and publicly searchable.  

And here, where you write:

Please send a request promptly to
feedback at evergreen-ils.org if you believe you are the exception.

Do you mean that if the person's post was excised and they found fault with
the reasoning, they should email?  Maybe that could be stated more clearly.

Other than that, +1.

Thanks for those links Galen.  I'll toss out a draft mailing list
policy to get us going....

Mailing List Policy

Mailing lists are crucial to the operation of the Evergreen Community.
The General Mailing List serves as the primary communication for all
members of the community and provides a venue for users to help each
other use the software. In addition, Evergreen users and developers
use mailing lists to coordinate development and the Oversight Board
uses a mailing list to manage issues of governance. Mailing lists also
serve as a primary channel for working groups to conduct Evergreen
business (e.g. Documentation Interest Group, Web Team, Catalogers,
etc).

The Evergreen community values openness, transparency, and
collaboration and seeks to provide an environment that respects and
encourages all contributions. As such, none of the Evergreen mailing
lists are private.  Anyone can subscribe to any of the lists available
at http://evergreen-ils.org/listserv.php.

Mailing list participants are expected to respect the stated purpose
of each list and conduct themselves in a mutually respectful manner at
all times.

The lists are also archived archived and publicly searchable.  Our
policy is that the archives are not modified except under rare
situations where confidential information has been inadvertently
shared on a list. Please send a request promptly to
feedback at evergreen-ils.org if you believe you are the exception.
However, be advised that deleting information in the archives will not
make it go away because mailing lists have been mirrored, have feeds
and are in the Google cache and other search engine indexes.

The Apache policy is nicely minimal since it just appeals to general
netiquette, but the Debian policy strikes me as a good template that's a
little more explicit about expectations for mailing list participants.
