I think the new format with your idea of releasing messages more often
really would add to the content as keep the excess number of responses
down to a minimum. The new format already has shown much more valuable
information exchange to the general list. Putting responses directly
into the archive is only one step above the old format but this new one
is 10 fold improvement. If some do not want to wade through the
occasional multiple inquiries, as any list, they can unsub and then read
the archives only.
I guess a question should be asked- are all messages and responses going
to be archived ?
