1.5. What mailing lists discuss Project Management ?
I set up a mailing list in 1993 on our machine (smtl.demon.co.uk).
However, due to the fact that our machine is connected to the net via
a dialup PPP link, all access was through mail (no ftp, WWW etc). In
addition, the list was costing us a fortune each time a message was
disseminated to the 300 subscribers.
Then the mailing list was hosted by mailbase, at the University of
Newcastle. The numbers subscribed reached about 2,000 by July 1995.
However, to maintain a mailing list on mailbase you need a list
manager from a UK University, and the list manager (Nigel
Metheringham) left for another job. Luckily he found another site to
host the mail list, at The Project Management Learning Centre, at the
University of Technology, Sydney.
The new list is called pmnet.
To subscribe, send mail to Majordomo@uts.edu.au
containing the command
subscribe pmnet
To unsubscribe, send mail containing the command
unsubscribe pmnet
Other facilities are available - for information send it the command
"help".
To Post to the list, send your message to:
pmnet@uts.edu.au
You will be sent some general information when you subscribe.
The aim of the list is to discuss project management techniques
generally, not just project management software and programmes.
