We have around 200 subscribers on this list, so when you are thinking of posting a message to the list make sure it is something that is suitable for all audiences and of interest to all, or at least most, of the people on the list. Since this is a rocketry group almost anything to do with rockets, your own or someone else's should be fine. Discussions of launches, meetings and other club activities are also on-topic. There are certainly other things that will be of interest to the majority of the people on the list, but give it some thought before you hit send.
