Who Can Subscribe to WESTERCON-L?
WESTERCON-L is open to all Westercon members (attendees),
potential members, members of other Westercons, and anyone else
interested in discussing the convention.
What Topics are Appropriate for WESTERCON-L?
This list is intended for discussion of Westercon, science fiction conventions
in general, and other Westercon-related issues. General fannish chat is
acceptable as long as the volume of the list does not become too great and
the topic of discussion is of interest to the members of the list. Please
do not repost humorous (or other) messages from Usenet or other lists unless
they are directly relevant to Westercon. Posting of very large files
(binaries) is not allowed.
Commercial solicitations and any other mass mailings of any kind (AKA
"spam") will absolutely not be tolerated. Don't do it. We mean it. And
don't try to weasel out of it by saying "but I thought it was relevant to
the list"... we all know what spam is when we see it, and we will take
appropriate action. Losing your subscription to WESTERCON-L is just the
beginning. We have friends all over the world, many of whom own powerful
computers and/or impressive weapons and are not afraid to use them.
