Mime-Version: 1.0 Newsgroups: comp.lang.ada Date: 1999-03-01T00:00:00+00:00 List-Id: It certainly makes the Ada community look alive and kicking when a visitor comes by. Adverts that contain any kind of updates to Ada technology available should be highly encouraged. Even adeverts announcing up coming Ada user group meetings and training seminars should be highly encouraged to help produce this affect. Also, some one should take over maintaining FAQs for CLA as Magnus Kempe has expressed that he is no longer actively working on AdaHome, or as it seems the FAQs. c.l.a policy could be expressed there and help those that are active on the list (such as myself) to get a better picture of the consensus on what is considered appropriate and not for c.l.a. (This is not an advertisement to start a thread on this here and now, nor to discuss my own post on CompUSA policy that some felt was too off topic to belong here.) It would also help if we agreed on one "police man" for the group who would politely mention that something is off topic and perhaps this is not the best place to be posting XYZ. (For e.g.. Larry's remark on the CompUSA thread was appropriate, well placed, and not personal. I will judge differently what is considered appropriate on c.l.a before posting here.)
