What I'm trying to figure out is a model where directors engage fully with each other in open discussions, but we also have a very active open discussions amongst non-directors which directors can dip in and out of.
I see where you're going... My main gripe with it is that I don't see how the duplicate-thread-to-EE and reply-to-both-lists rules can be enforced in the ML setup, so it will rely on people applying it.
If we can't get developers to use subject prefixes, I somehow doubt we can get directors to follow thread replication rules between two mailing-lists. And the discussion can quickly get messy if a subset of people don't follow the rules.
Right, I'm not proposing a solution. I'm proposing some requirements for an ideal solution and looking for ideas. You think it can't be done, I get that :)
The alternative setup doesn't depend so much on people following a copy rule, so my impression is that it would be more successful in the end ?
You mean Dave's idea? It's certainly fairly close to the requirements I laid out, but I don't think Dave is certain mailman can even do that much. Cheers, Mark.
