*** Do not ignore Bob's poll

To everyone satisfied with the way the IVOA mailing lists work: do not
ignore the message from Bob Hanisch. 

Please respond to him saying that you want the lists to stay the same. If
you do not, then the list behaviour will change so that EVERY time you
comment to a list email you will have to
 a) make sure you only click reply-all: clicking reply will only go to the
message sender;
 b) remove the name of the sender from the To list, and every other
recipient in the Cc list if others have forgotten to do so;
 c) move the name of the list from the Cc list to the To list.
Since most people will not do this then you will end up getting every
message in any thread in which you participate TWICE.

This was the way the lists previously worked and it caused great annoyance
and led to frequent mis-sendings of emails.

So, do not think that this is something you can ignore and it'll all work
out sensibly - if you do not repond then the list behaviour will be changed,
to your inconvenience.

Cheers,
Tony.
