As a listowner myself, and as one who has helped with the Museum-L list in the past, I'd like to point out a few things. First of all, this is a discussion list, not a listserv. LISTSERV is the name of the software application that runs these lists. As a result, the DIGEST format is proscribed by the program. I am on Digest, and have no problems with the format. Secondly, the folks posting to the list vary in their computer literacy. Sure, everyone should trim their posts, but some of us forget, or do not know quite how to. Finally, no one is getting paid for the work of keeping this list up and dealing with all the problems it generates. If you feel the list is unprofessional, I suggest you unsubscribe and start your own. Maybe then you will appreciate the amount of time it takes to run this group.
