Brett had a good idea - I've created wwpolicy@pglaf.org, with the same members as pgww@pglaf.org. This will help us to separate out the policy discussion, and I hope make it easier to find later. Of course, we might end up with somewhat different list memberships at some point, too.
What is the virtue of this? Like everywhere else, policy is inextricably intertwined with practice.
Errr, is there a vote?
Good policy question :-)
My main reason in favor is that pgww already gets plenty of traffic - usually at least 100 messages per week - that are strictly operational about new eBook processing.
When I try to find policy discussions in my mail archives, this stuff tends to mask some of what I'm interested in. That's why I thought a second list was not a bad idea.
Ah. I just got it. You see, I filter all the upload messages into a separate mailbox. Then, whatever pgww messages don't fall into that are for discussion. Maybe what you really want to do is make a separate list for _those_, rather than abandoning pgww to just the upload messages? Though, I must say, filtering out the upload messages isn't hard . . . jim
