Subject: Icon-group mailing list
You have been added to the Icon-Group list.
This mailing list is meant to be a common meeting area for persons
interested in the Icon programming language. Topics for discussion
include (but are not limited to):
Programming Techniques
- Style
- Efficiency
- Idioms
- Pros and Cons of certain constructs
- Clever ways to accomplish a certain task
Theoretical Aspects
Icon in relation to other languages
Applications of Icon
Implementation Issues
Porting Icon to other machines
History/Origins
Idea/Wish Lists
Announcement/Exchange of programs and procedures
Bugs
Items of interest should be mailed to icon-group@cs.arizona.edu. Mail is
redistributed to all persons on the list. It's good practice to include
a signature giving your name and email address, because not all mailers
preserve these.
Requests for addition or removal from the list should be sent to
icon-group-request@cs.arizona.edu.
This mailing list does not subsume the function of the icon-project
mailbox that we currently maintain. Rather, the mailing list
supplements it. Icon questions that may not be appropriate for
icon-group can be sent to icon-project. If you are in doubt,
send to icon-project, note your uncertainty, and we'll see it
ends up in the correct place.
If you submit an item to Icon-Group and get back failure notifications for
individuals, you can help eliminate this problem by mailing such messages
to icon-group-REQUEST. (Our software tries to arrange for failure
notifications to be sent to us, but it's a moving target type problem.)
A copy of the Frequently Asked Questions (and Answers) for the Icon
Programming Language will be sent as a separate message.
