[AG-TECH] Mailing Lists

[Mary Fritsch]

ACCESS GRID COMMUNITY,

This email serves to explain usage of some new and existing mailing 
lists.  The following sets forth all of the official mailing lists that are 
currently in place in connection with the official Access Grid 
project.  (They include @mcs.anl.gov and @accessgrid.org domains.)

As you will see, accessgrid at mcs.anl.gov no longer exists, various 
additional mailing lists have been removed and new ones setup.  A 
description of the proper usage of each is provided.  These mailing lists 
and descriptions have been added to the Technical Resources pages of 
www.accessgrid.org.

As you know, the Access Grid project (software, webpages, documentation, 
etc.) will be going through a great deal of progressive change over the 
next few months.  This email, along with our monthly technical meeting 
series, up-to-date announcements, future newsletters, automated procedures, 
revamped webpages, and productive mailing lists, will ensure our expanding 
AG community stays well-informed and connected at every level.
