*ORIGINALLY POSTED MAY.20.2005:*
======================
the fact that several people just posted announcements to the  
microsound list proves to me that the people who are still posting  
announcements after a month of having the announcements list made  
available for this actually don't bother reading the list...but they  
don't mind using it as a way to promote something...this is not what  
the list was intended to be used for and why the other list was set  
up...

*please if you are going to post your project announcements to a list  
you should really take the time to actually read it from time to  
time...no?
============================================================
below is the info w/r/t the microsound-announcement list for those  
who have just joined the microsound list:
============================================================

John Saylor has generously donated both his server space and time
setting up a new list for members who want to promote content...it is
called the microsound-announce list and can be found here:
http://microsound.nexthop.net/mailman/listinfo/microsound-announce
###########################################
- this is where the microsound community should post announcements
promoting their music, label, radio show, upcoming concert, or
whatever...
###########################################
- here is how the process of switching over is going to work:
- all people who normally post announcements to the microsound list
will have two weeks (Friday April 8) to update their address books and
switch to the announce list for posting future microsound related
announcements
- after April 8 (last Friday) members still posting announcements to the
regular microsound list will be contacted by email and politely asked
to redirect their posts to the microsound-announce list
- if after a couple of polite requests the poster continues to post
announcements to the regular list their microsound account will be
terminated...
- the process should be pretty simple but if there are problems
unsub'ing or sub'ing please contact:
Andy Thomas <andy at hyperreal.org> - for the microsound list
or
John Saylor <johns at or8.net> - for the microsound-announce list
and let them know about the problem you are having...
thanks!
KIM
