I have not been a conspicuous presence on this list, mostly lurking for a
couple of years. I have learned a lot from the good people here, and
perhaps contributed a few meager tidbits of info from my own experience. I
hope the list does not die.
But I want to voice a cautionary reaction to Brad's suggestion. For me, the
best mailing lists are those that address a narrow topic, and stay focused
on that topic. This means that I don't have to wade through a lot of
articles to find the few that I want to read. Digital photography is a
rather broad field, and could encompass scanning, digicams, photoediting,
color management, printing, imaging for the web, business and employment
issues, etc. Some of those subfields interest me, some do not. I would
hate to see this group evolve into a high volume list covering a diffuse
range of topics. I would rather subscribe to a small set of focused lists
that cover the subfields I follow. That's what I am doing now.
