Hello everyone, I find that most often it is better -- for both the writer and the reader -- to have a single email that covers a wide-ranging set of topics because there are often threads that relate the topics which can be lost of the initial discussion starts as a series of emails. If the writer is skillful and diligent he/she can then follow-up with an email per subject/thread. It can be useful to develop naming conventions for threads such that the thread name is memorable and evocative. Topics that begin with email from a single member can lead to an official ISSUE being recorded, often using a subject that rhymes with the original subject. I suppose that we will develop our own set of conventions over time as a prophylactic against WG-email-madness. Anyway, those are just a few of my opinions. More to follow in the months to come. Regards, Murray Maloney P.S. I find it helps if email is addressed only to the WG list and if people exclude their VCards and other attachments. My email filters have choked on several emails on this list already, which means that I may not see some really good stuff just because I don't want my mail box filling up with attachments that I will never look at.
