Hello,In relation to reacting to off-topic posts, I've found the following advice from other list servers useful to me:
If you believe a posting is off-topic, reply to the poster *privately*. If you wish, you can also copy the list server manager on the reply.

The "Emergency vigil" message WAS inappropriate. Please do not post messages that do not relate to cohousing. BTW the message on 6/16 "A World Beyond Capitalism " was barely related so I approved it when I had little time to consider it... Note that I only sometimes have a chance to approve /disapprove of messages - depends if they are too big, from an non subscribed address etc. Also note that messages related to an off topic are also off topic so lets get back to talking about cohousing and treat that "vigil" message as an error... There were 3 messages related to it that were rejected and I decided not to approve. Fred who has little time for manging the list for a couple more weeks. -- Fred H.
