Have you guys noticed the recent UNSUBSCRIBE emails.
This mailing list generates a very high volume and much of it is needless. I personally do not feel the need to read three consecutive emails thanking NCSA. Thank them directly, they'll appreciate it.
The past months, I have remained a subscriber but just delete all the emails, unread. The UNSUBSCRIBES aroused my interest - and after what I've read, I dont blame them for wanting to get out.
