spi-projects is a list to which all the project liaisons of SPI associated projects are subscribed. It's used by the board to contact all project liaisons at the same time, e.g. to ask which projects participate in Google Summer of Code and want SPI to handle their payments or to get input from SPI projects on the SPI annual report. spi-board is a list of the board of directors to communicate. It's also used as a contact address for the board. Since the general public cannot subscribe to these lists, I don't think it makes sense to list them at http://www.spi-inc.org/contact/mailinglists/ It's just confusing. I think I'll add the links to the onboarding info for directors and liaisons instead (<http://spi-inc.org/corporate/onboarding/>). > spi-private is the only one I am member of.

Personally, I feel that spi-private has been overused and most of the conversation should have been on spi-general. spi-private should only be used for things that should not be public / publicly archived. Do you have a suggestion on how to improve the page to make this clearer? -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ _______________________________________________ Spi-general mailing list Spi-general@lists.spi-inc.org http://lists.spi-inc.org/listinfo/spi-general
