[kwlug-disc] KWLUG and CASL (and Mailman)

[unsolicited]

Interesting.

We don't send to non-subscribers.

Wouldn't subscribing be consent to receive?

Particularly as there are unsubscription instructions with each message. 
(I clicked the link - although the listowner- address is not listed, 
there are e-mail addresses listed there. i.e. There is a complaint 
pathway.) [Perhaps the listowner address should be listed there, 
obfuscated?]

I suspect, in the end, 'enforcement' would be like By-Laws and many 
other things - nothing pursued unless and until a complaint is received, 
and that complaint must show a continued/repeated failure to unsubscribe 
the complainant?

Would a 'list administrator code of conduct' blurb on the link be 
useful? "We promise to unsubscribe you and not bother you if you so 
express, and here's how you so express."? (Given whom we are, I doubt 
any of us would want to inflict ourselves upon any who do not wish to be 
so inflicted. We've all been there, done that, don't wish it on anyone 
else? Whether they believe our statements - different beastie.)

No matter what we do there are always some who won't take yes for an answer.

And weirdos in the world.

Pretty sure some are within our ranks, even. (-:
