Hello Listserv subscribers, My name is Andrew Sedger and I work in the commercial fisheries management section of NSW Fisheries, Australia. I have decided to join this list for a specific reason: I am currently trying to establish an Australia wide e-conference on fisheries related issues. There are a number of such lists (eg Fish-Ecology, Fisheries, Fishfolk etc) which operate from various countries, but none from Australia. In order to establish this e-conference, I need to convince my Department that the proposal will be useful and worthwhile. I have some basic knowledge of how e-conferences work, but at the moment I am interested in summarising any appropriate literature in order to write a proposal for the conference. Would anyone please provide me with a few reference (if any have been published) about e-conferences or mailing lists. Thankyou in advance, Andy -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Andrew Sedger Fisheries Management Officer NSW FISHERIES AUSTRALIA e-mail: [log in to unmask] phone: (02) 566 7873 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
