Welcome to the RosemontVa Group!
The RosemontVa group is a neighborhood discussion list for people in and near the Rosemont neighborhood in Alexandria, Virginia. This is a place where you can exchange news about the neighborhood, including new stores, street construction, development, city services, robberies and break-ins, traffic, parking, stuff for sale, places for rent, where to eat, where to get a great plumber, schools, and more. Think of the list as your neighborhood post office, playground or supermarket, where you'd meet and chat with your neighbors. How does this list work? Members are approved by the list moderator. Any member may post a message to the entire list, but the moderator will approve the first message from a new member. (This cuts down the risk of spam.) Messages should be directly relevant to the Rosemont neighborhood. If there is a city-wide event, this is not the place for it. We don't want our list members to be overwhelmed with messages, and have their inboxes cluttered. All messages that are posted on the RosemontVa group need to be written in accordance with the rules below. The RosemontVa group is a G-rated list: Messages should be appropriate for all ages. 1. Posts should relate to Rosemont. While Rosemont is part of the solar system, it's a good idea to keep your messages about somewhat more local topics. While people who live outside of Rosemont are welcome to join and post, if you don't live or work in Rosemont, you may not use this list to advance your particular cause or your favorite issue. In other words, while this is an open, welcoming list, it is first and foremost a list by and for neighbors. 2. Posting occasional announcements is okay, but they should relate to Rosemont or the vicinity, and should not be part of a mass emailing. No press releases. No regular or repeated announcements for non-neighborhood series or events. The Rosemont is not the place for announcements about any of the following: national or international cause organizations; out-of-neighborhood charities or non-profit institutions; demonstrations, protests, rallies, lectures, or fundraisers, except for those held in the neighborhood or directly related to a neighborhood issue. 3. Please sign your messages, preferably with your full name, but at a minimum with your first name. (If your email address or the FROM line shows your full name clearly, that's sufficient.) You do not need to post your address, phone number or other personal information. While the moderators may add a list member's name to an unsigned message (if we know who you are), most of the time unsigned messages will simply be deleted. 5. No crossposts (with some exceptions): Messages should be written specifically for the RosemontVa group. Exceptions are made for messages of an urgent nature, which affect the health or safety of neighbors, or which the list moderators consider to be important or useful to the neighborhood at large. For example, a crime report or a school fair can be announced on both the Rosemont and other neighborhood lists at the same time. Neighborhood civic groups are generally exempt from the no-crosspost rule (but still shouldn't have more than one email address in the TO or CC line of their message.) If you have something issue-oriented to say, an opinion to opine, something to buy or sell, or suggest, please do it on only one email list at a time. Do not add any other email addresses to the CC or TO line of your message. If you regularly send messages to multiple lists, the moderator may put you on can't-post status. 6. Spam of any kind is prohibited on the RosemontVa group. Members may include their business or affiliation in an email signature (2 lines max). Anyone who sends spam to the listserv or to any other listserv or individuals or who is disruptive to the list may have their posts deleted or may be banned from the list. 7. Respect the privacy of others. Posting someone's home address or phone number or posting private or personal correspondence without their permission is not allowed. Forwarding somebody's off-list correspondence is not allowed
