[Board] projects mailing list

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Bart,

I think Jachym recently gave the wiki some love (at 
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Contacts#Software_Projects) and I gave 
osgeo.org some love (at 
http://www.osgeo.org/content/foundation/board_and_officers.html).  Which 
was nice to have the help.

There could be confusing differences I am sure.

If that is what you mean??

In my opinion I believe we should auto-subscribe all project officers[1], and then send the first message describing the purpose of the list (also explaining the reason for the auto-subscribe).  I could also see this as an easy way for the SAC chair to contact all project leaders about system issues (downtimes/transition requests etc.), hopefully this use case fits into your vision for this list.
