Re: Survey: Use of this list for Calls for Papers

+1 to stuff like "[CfP]" (and also "[RFP]," etc) added to Subject lines.

+100 to people refraining from submitting bogusly long [CfP]'s. These
simply AREN'T necessary! [CfP] emails should be limited to very brief
summaries of the CfP --- possibly "structured," but a very few
elements, and a LINK.

There's this thing called "The Web" with which the bogusly-long
content can be presented in full, and "linked"-to by this thing called
a "URL..."

ALSO: Phil, the max size of allowed emails can be set, to something
like 10K bytes. That will stop all sorts of badness, including
overly-copied discussions threads.
