We might try that - as the number of subscribers grow, maybe we'll feel 
the need for a separate alac-only list, to discuss our own matters in 
public but without getting them lost in the overall traffic - assuming, 
as I said, that traffic develops.

I think this is a good idea, and membership could be totally free, so we 
could have non-ALS individuals, more than one member per ALS, etc 
Possibly, we might keep the -ALS list as a closed instrument for cases 
in which formal one-way communication from ICANN to the ALSes has to 
happen (e.g. call for nominations, etc.).
