3.3.1 Mailing List: Country Western Dance (excluding line dancing)

This is a public unmoderated electronic mailing list for discussion of
ANY aspect of the various Country Western dances (but see below for
line dances!). That would include, but is not limited to, any of the
following: Two-Step, Waltz, Polka,East Coast Swing, West Coast Swing,
Cha-Cha. Rhythm Two-Step, Triple Two-Step, Pony (also called Pony
Swing), Schottische, Southern-style (`Sweetheart') Schottische, and
line dances. If you're not sure this list covers your dance type,
please feel free to email the list. ECS or WCS discussions that are not
strictly CW-related should probably be on
>rec.arts.dance/ballroom@mitvma.mit.edu


Possible topics include, but are not limited to, teachers,
performances, music, videos, books, history, the future of the various
dance forms, major people, clothes/shoes, technique, etc.


Anyone can join the list by sending e-mail to majordomo@world.std.com
with a "subscribe cw-dance" command (without the quotes) in the body of
the message.


There is currently no FAQ (list of Frequently Asked Questions) for
this list, but I'd really like to see (at least) one happen. If you
have a possible contribution, please share it with the list! If you're
interested in organizing creation of a FAQ, please contact Eileen Bauer
at cw-dance-request@world.std.com .


This list will be archived at
ftp://ftp.std.com/ftp/nonprofits/dance/
(note caps) as well as the books, videos, and music directories
directly under the dance directory where appropriate.


This mailing list has a one-way receiving gateway from
rec.music.country.western . That is, any post to that newsgroup with a
c&w dance related term in the subject or keywords line will be sent to
the cw-dance mailing list. Additionally, the mailing list is connected
to the newsgroup rec.arts.dance in both directions: anything posted to
the list is sent to the newsgroup, and replies made on the newsgroup
are sent back to the list. This last action is guaranteed by the
keywords line generated by the list->newsgroup gateway, so if your news
software does not copy the keywords line in a follow-up post, that post
will not be gated back to the list.


People whose posts to rec.music.country.western are sent to the
mailing list, are notified of this, once.
