[At-Large] Unsubscribe me please

[Seun Ojedeji]

Hi Garth,

You will agree with me that there are several mailing list for different
issues (working groups), and I personally think they are even too many of
them already and may be one of the reason people loose touch on what is
happening within ICANN.  Perhaps what can be done in other to address the
point you've raised is to have the several lists placed somewhere central
with relevant description on purpose. There is usually list info page on
mailman by default and AtLarge has one too [1] but its needs to be updated
and perhaps should go as part of the footer URLs as well.

That said, It usually baffles me when a list that has been relatively
silent starts getting unsubscribe request immediately it's becoming active.
Isn't the essence of the list in the first place for us all to interact?
Why then get off if once the opportunity to interact shows itself.

Ofcourse I am fine with people flagging possibility of unsubscribing if the
list no longer discusses issues of relevance to the purpose of setting up
the list. However, I think what has been discussed so far is indeed of
relevance hence I wonder whether those subscriber really wanted to
participate in the first place.

On the same note and perhaps as a suggestion, it may be good to find a way
to always keep the list active so subscriber don't see inactivity as the
norm and activity as a strange thing. :-)

I personally am a fan of mailing list as I don't think any web facing page
would engage and provide information to ones door step as much as a mailing
list.
