Mailing List

Using the WAI IG mailing list:

1. Treat other list members with respect.
2. Familiarize yourself with the mission, scope, and activities of WAI before you comment on the list, and check the mail archives to see whether a topic has been discussed already.
3. This is a large list. Keep your comments brief and to the point.
4. Keep your reply comments near the top of a message, and only quote essential parts of a previous message; that way there are less quote markings for other readers to wade through.
5. Don't "cc" the WAI IG list with messages you are sending to other organizations.
6. No soliciting.
   
7. If you use a vacation auto-responder on your e-mail program, make sure to exclude responses to any mail with w3c-wai-ig@w3.org in any header.
8. Please send any questions about the WAI IG mailing list to jbrewer@w3.org, not to the whole list or to other list members.
