Administrivia: List info and update


Hello,


First off, we're really pleased with this list so far! The list has just
passed the 50 subscriber mark, with 56 list members currently on this
list. :-) That's beyond my wildest dreams, since it's only been just
over 2 weeks since this list started!

Second, since Stephen and I have been doing fine tuning with list info
and configuration, some people have probably not seen the finalised form
of the (new) subscriber information which is delivered on joining the
list. I'm putting that text at the end of this letter, so that those who
haven't done so may read and keep it.

Third, it's been suggested to us that there should be a digest format of
the list. We are currently investigating whether this is possible or not,
and hopefully we can eventually have this available.


Looking forward to more great Corrs-discussion on the list,
Mikko Hänninen and Stephen Jacob
List maintainers <owner-corrs-list@maths.tcd.ie>
