I agree the current [Full-Disclosure] needs to be dropped. I'd personally prefer to see it shortened to [FD] (option #2) since I follow Full-Disclosure and bugtraq (and maintain archives of interesting threads on both lists). Given that a number of messages are cross posted to both lists, having some extra unique tag to match (like an [FD] in the subject) allows me to easily separate duplicate cross posts into the appropriate archive folders for each list. I could live with option #1 (no prefix at all) as well, but it would be a slight annoyance at times.Hey folks, ALL LIST MEMBERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO RESPOND AND MAKE A CHOICE AS TO HOW THEY WANT THIS BASIC FUNCTION OF THE LIST TO CONTINUE OPERATING. The subject header is going to change. This is a survey to see whether people want: 1. To have no subject prefix, that is, we remove [Full-Disclosure] or 2. To shorten the subject prefix from [Full-Disclosure] to [FD] or 3. Do nothing 1. The first choice is preferable for me and, I would hope, for most folks. Len says he didn't really want it when he started the list anyways. So we are actually going to change it now. 2. Choice two may be preferable for people who can only filter their incoming messages based on the subject prefix. So, if you WANT there to continue to be a subject prefix, SPEAK UP!!! 3. Choice three sucks and if anyone wants this SPEAK UP so we know just how many people want this. This is the least preferrable as it clutters the Subject header and makes the list harder to read through for those of us using a text based e-mail client.-- The difference between common-sense and paranoia is that common-sense is thinking everyone is out to get you.

I prefer option 2, as this will make keeping filters up to date a lot simpler. -- Bruno ----- "If you listen and think, we'll get finished quicker." _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it. Charter: http://lists.netsys.com/full-disclosure-charter.html
