Nick:
I believe this development is a good thing and should be
encouraged. I should think most of the issues likely to be raised in ALAC are
hardly unique to any region. So it would be good to learn from the
perspectives of the regional representatives to ALAC, even though some
filtering would have taken place.

Creo que este desarrollo es una buena cosa
y que debe ser animado. Debo pensar que la mayoria de las ediciones que se
levantaran en ALAC sea probablemente apenas unico a cualquier region. Seria tan
bueno aprender de las perspectivas de los representantes regionales a ALAC,
aunque habrian ocurrido algunos que se filtran.

Postings and Regional ALS lists
Hello everyone!
As you may have noticed, posts from the ALAC Committee's list are flowing
through to the ALS lists in each region.
This is in order to help the community see and understand the work of the ALAC,
and allow the community more of a seamless opportunity to engage with committee
discussions, either on a regional or international basis.
This is a bit of an experiment - it may be that the additional email load
becomes too large and that some or all regions may wish to simply keep the
regional list for regional issues, and have individuals interested in following
and participating in the discussions with ALAC to join the ALAC list for that
purpose. At the moment, the flow of emails is one-way - from the ALAC list to
the regional lists - and replies sent to the ALAC list don't go through, and
the ALAC list currently allows for the committee members to post, but all other
subscribers are moderated, making the ALAC list sort-of a fishbowl.
We can of course change any of these arrangements if that is the community's
wish and have the ALAC become a 'global conversation' with the committee, with
the -Announce lists reserved for announcements.
Each region's -Discuss list is unchanged and remains devoted to regional
discussions.
As you all know, the fact that the At-Large community has control of the
configuration of its communications is still a relatively new phenomenon, so we
will have to make up the structure you want as we go along.
