Dear All: The original idea of having regional -Announce lists was for announcing things, but in practice, nothing gets announced in these lists; everything goes in the other two. May I propose that we get rid of these? We can always bring them back later, or if any one region wants to keep them, of course we can do that. -- Regards, Nick Ashton-Hart PO Box 32160 London N4 2XY United Kingdom UK Tel: +44 (20) 8800-1011 USA Tel: +1 (202) 657-5460 Fax: +44 (20) 7681-3135 mobile: +44 (7774) 932798 Win IM: ashtonhart@hotmail.com / AIM/iSight: nashtonhart@mac.com / Skype: nashtonhart Online Bio: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashtonhart

May I propose that we get rid of these? We can always bring them back later, or if any one region wants to keep them, of course we can do that. I support that. I also suggest to review the need to have euro-discuss and euro-als. Too many lists actually make things less transparent.
On a related subject, there are also too many ALAC related web sites. We would increase the visibility of the ALAC process by consolidating the information under one common domain. -- Patrick Vande Walle
I am also in support of consolidation of mailing lists. As for the websites, yes, there are too many, but there is some history behind. ALAC started its "independent" website and with the departure of the webmaster that time, Jean, we are asking a little support from ICANN, which is pending. I hope this request be approved and thus that website becomes the central "hub" with other sites. In any case there needs a good coordination. izumi 2007/3/30, Patrick Vande Walle <patrick@isoc.lu>:
