I'm busy making a more reduntant assault on the distribution list system
than may be justified to announce a new list but don't feel that MUSEUM-L
can be overlooked in the present "campaign". Apologies are hereby extended
to anyone who ends up seeing this message more than once.

The Museum Web Development List, MUSWEB-L, is intended to provide a forum
for the discussion of all issues related to the development of World Wide
Web services at museums. This includes administrative concerns in the
maintenance of Web sites as well as technical matters relating to the
authorship and transfer of hypertext documents. Additional network services
commonly accessed from the Web environment using mailto, ftp, and gopher
URLs also lie within the scope of the list. This includes technical issues
which do not do not relate directly to the Web, such as the maintenance of
gopher and ftp services, and e-mail distribution lists.

MUSWEB-L is being provided to serve those who are professionally involved
with the maintenance of Internet services at museums. It is not intended as
a platform for interaction with the user community since it is assumed that
museums which offer network services also provide their own feedback
channels.

Anyone may submit a request for membership in MUSWEB-L. In keeping with the
preceding statement, applicants may be asked to provide a brief description
of their professional concern with museum networking services prior to being
added to the list.
