Hello Everybody.

As new NCSG chair I am glad to start my term by introducing our new
organizational and individual members who were just approved by the NCSG EC
and welcome them in our group.

They are already added to this mailing list and so able to participate in
our discussion.
I will follow-up to support them in order to be fully involved and
participate in our policy discussion and happy to respond to their
questions(our existing members can contact me of course!)

Regarding the mailing list:

Here is some important information  about your new subscription, which we
recommend that you preserve for future reference. Having this information
available will make it easier to recognize all the lists to which you are
subscribed and in case you want  to unsubscribe or temporary disable mail
delivery.

* The name of the list: NCSG-DISCUSS

* The LISTSERV host name: LISTSERV.SYR.EDU <http://listserv.syr.edu/>

The following email addresses are used for the specified purposes:

* To send an email to the list: [log in to unmask]

* To contact the list owner: [log in to unmask]

* To send commands to the LISTSERV server: [log in to unmask]

* To unsubscribe from the list:
[log in to unmask]

The following URLs may also be useful:

* The list home page:
https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?A0=NCSG-DISCUSS

* The list subscription page:
https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?SUBED1=NCSG-DISCUSS

***********************************
* SETTING A SERVER-LEVEL PASSWORD *
***********************************

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=.

*****************************************
* INTERACTING WITH LISTSERV VIA THE WWW *
*****************************************

Subscription settings  and preferences  can be  set using  LISTSERV's web
interface. Once  you have set a  server password as explained  above, you
may log in and set your preferences at:
https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?SUBED1=NCSG-DISCUSS.

Contributions  sent to  this  list are  automatically  archived. You  can
access the list archives at:
https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?A0=NCSG-DISCUSS.

You may need to log in to view the archives.

**************************************
* INTERACTING WITH LISTSERV BY EMAIL *
**************************************

You may  leave the  list at  any time by  sending a  SIGNOFF NCSG-DISCUSS
command to:  [log in to unmask], or by  sending a blank  email to:
[log in to unmask]

You can  also tell  LISTSERV how you  want it to  confirm the  receipt of
messages that you send  to the list. To send yourself a  copy of your own
messages, send a SET NCSG-DISCUSS REPRO command.

Alternatively, to have LISTSERV send  you a short acknowledgement instead
of  the entire  message, send  a  SET NCSG-DISCUSS  ACK NOREPRO  command.
Finally,  you  can turn  off  acknowledgements  completely with  the  SET
NCSG-DISCUSS NOACK NOREPRO command.

This  list is  available  in digest  form.  If you  wish  to receive  the
digested version  of the postings,  then issue a SET  NCSG-DISCUSS DIGEST
command.

You can also set the digest delivery option on the list subscription page
at: https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?SUBED1=NCSG-DISCUSS.

Following  instructions from  the list  owner, your  subscription options
have been  set to "REPRO"  rather than  the usual LISTSERV  defaults. For
more information  about subscription  options, send a  QUERY NCSG-DISCUSS
command to [log in to unmask]

You may  also check your current  settings on the list  subscription page
at: https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?SUBED1=NCSG-DISCUSS.

More information on the tools  and options available for list subscribers
may  be   found  in   the  official   L-Soft  online   documentation  at:
