Subject: [Diasporas] Welcome to the Discussion Group
Message-ID: <4E202BFC.2070703@inter-disciplinary.net>

Hi Folks,

I hope this finds you all well and in good spirits. We welcome delegates 
from the 4th meeting of the Diasporas project to this public discussion 
group. I trust you all had a thoroughly enjoyable meeting.

Welcome aboard. This is a place and a space whereby the discussions 
started at the conference can grow and evolve, where we can invite 
others to join the dialogues, share news, information resources - it can 
be as big or as little you wish to make it!

A very early word about 'netiquette', if I may. The purpose of the 
discussion group is to discuss and share matters of 'content': for 
example, starting and continuing discussions, sharing news, raising 
awareness of events, alerting folks to issues, concepts, resources etc.

It is not to be used, under any circumstances, for administrative or 
individual purposes. Please bear in mind: when you send a message to 
this list it will be automatically distributed to everyone who belongs 
to the list - and that includes the folks from this year's conference, 
last year's conference, people who have found us from other sources etc. 
Please make sure the email you are going to send really needs or ought 
to be seen by all list members!

All other correspondence should continue to go via the normal office and 
project email addresses.
Admin emails should continue to go to: dias4 at inter-disciplinary.net
Conference related email should continue to go to Ram: Ram.Vemuri at cdu.edu.au

You do not need to sign up to belong to this group - you are already a 
member.

Many thanks indeed. Looking forward to the discussions!

Warmly,

Rob
