The Aussie Ambassador, Tim Serong and I agree that a mailing list is the preferred means of communication for Australian users. With our presence in Australia growing stronger, a separate list for local discussion would allow us to activities and events without cluttering other lists.
Do you really fear that? I mean the ambassadors list has on average less then 100 mails a month. That makes roughly 3 mails a day. If anything this list is on life support and needs more traffic to be really useful don't you think?
Well, three mails a day is nothing for you and me and spam for some. Anyway. So you think the dutch should send their mails via the ambassador list in dutch, like the greek and all other countries in their own language?
No I don't. I'm trying to find out what you guys want and then serve the best thing to you :) I get that you want a list to talk Dutch on with your Dutch ambassador friends. But others want other things. Chuck wants a list by region in the dominant language and Helen wants a list by country. I'm just asking if you maybe can make up your (teams) minds.
I think each team should do what they prefer and if chuck wants a local USA ML, or an USA&Canada ML, he should ask it and get it :D
We can make the confusion perfect and do that. I don't care! :) The marketing team operates a mess of communication channels anyway. Just look at the three lists you have now. Separate lists for deeply connected topics, some of it with almost no traffic, a lot of cross-posting because no one knows whats the right forum is to reach the right people etc. We can add language, region and country list to the mix no problem! Just make up your minds :)

Henne, your speech inspire me can you make those opensuse-fr-ambassador opensuse-fr-kde opensuse-fr-gnome opensuse-fr-xfce opensuse-fr-meego opensuse-fr-lxde opensuse-fr-tweet opensuse-fr-facebook opensuse-fr-baguette ... and finally opensuse-fr-troll (I expect lot's of messages here, I can accept a international one for that) :-) Seriously, if we respect a strict non-cross-ml in ambassadors, we could start a message by [US] [GR] or whatever to distinct the language of the message. I would have some interest in what's happen in Australia, and USA, and Germany, and France, and Greece and India. All what the other do/discuss can be lessons of how to do the best ambassador job. So that would say, no more cross-posting with marketing ml, we can always send a link of the thread (even on web interface, can we ? if not we should have that in header or footer : like see that message in http://blabla) And second point, being creative and distinctive in subject. Doesn't sound a really big big effort.
