Mailing List

Using the WAI Interest Group (IG) mailing list

Treat others with respect.
Keep to the topic of web accessibility.
Keep your reply comments near the top of a message, and only quote essential parts of a previous message at the top -- so there are few quote markings for readers to wade through.
No soliciting.
If you use a vacation auto-responder on your e-mail program, make sure to exclude responses to any mail with w3c-wai-ig@w3.org in any header.
Please send any questions about the WAI IG mailing list to shawn@w3.org, not to the whole list or to other list members.

Subscribing to the WAI IG mailing list

To subscribe to the list, send mail to w3c-wai-ig-request@w3.org with "subscribe" as subject. (Note that this address is for subscribing only. To post a message after you have subscribed, use w3c-wai-ig@w3.org)
To unsubscribe from the list, send mail to w3c-wai-ig-request@w3.org with "unsubscribe" as subject. This is not the same address as the mailing list.

Subscribe to Digest or Read the Archives

You can read the mailing list from the mail archive instead of subscribing to the list.

You can also subscribe to a digest of the WAI IG mailing list, which will compile WAI IG messages for you. For the digest, send "subscribe" to w3c-wai-ig-d-request@w3.org. To unsubscribe from the digest, send "unsubscribe" to w3c-wai-ig-d-request@w3.org.

Sending messages to the WAI IG list

To send a message to the list, first subscribe to the list (instructions above), then send your message to w3c-wai-ig@w3.org

The first time you send a message to a public W3C mailing list, you will get a reply e-mail asking if you will give permission for your message to be distributed to the list and thus go into the public archive. There is an option to do this once and then you don't have to do it again in the future.
