I am happy as NCSG chair, to support new and existing members in order to let them be fully involved and participate in our policy discussion and for that I am ready to respond to your questions with the help of other experienced members and officers. I had mail exchange and even skype calls for those who asked, so please feel free to contact me if you want more information or asking for clarifications.

If you do not already have a password for the LISTSERV.SYR.EDU<http://listserv.syr.edu/> server, we
recommend that you set one now. A LISTSERV password is linked to your
subscribed address (the email address which received this message)
and is valid for all lists to which you are
subscribed on the LISTSERV.SYR.EDU<http://listserv.syr.edu/> server. The same password can be used
for email commands as well as for access to the web interface for the
lists to which you are subscribed.
To set your password for this server, visit:
https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?GETPW1=.
