The Mag-net list stylesheet |
The list stylesheet will evolve. To start with, on-topic
messages include all those dealing with terms and conditions
of work at or for and magazines.
On this list we are unfailingly comradely and couth.
The moderators' decision in all matters concerning the list is final.
Messages must not be contributed which:
- are actionably defamatory, obscene, criminally blasphemous or just too complicated to legal;
- contravene the NUJ's Code of Conduct;
- have degenerated into "flame wars";
- are over 2500 words long; or
- attempt to include anything that's not plain text
The plain-text-only rule serves to keep the time taken to download
list messages to a minimum. It also means that it is impossible (given
the current state of technical knowledge and dastardly invention)
for viruses to propagate through the list. The program that runs the
list also takes all plausible steps to stop your email address being
"harvested" by spam merchants.

least, list members will see the address you give on your messages.

moderator's decision by email. This is also a hidden list, which means that the
