LESSON 4 MAP Staff Mailing List
-
a. Lesson Status
- Congratulations, you have made it through the first 3 lessons! All MAP editors realize
that this is a lot of information to absorb and appreciate the effort which has gotten you
this far. At this point you are closer to the end than the beginning. The closer to the end
that you get, the closer you are to pitching in.
- b. MAP Staff Mailing List purpose
- The MAP Staff mailing list allows all MAP editors to keep in touch with each other. Whenever
any editor has a question about an article, they post it to the Staff
mailing list. An answer from another editor will usually appear within hours, but,
at times within minutes!
c. Join MAP Staff Mailing List
- Our Staff Mailing list is a closed mailing list. This means people can only join after
they have been approved by our Senior Editor.
Please send a message to chief@mapinc.org
or jo-d@mapinc.org and ask to be added to the Staff mailing
list now. Within 24 hours, you should receive a note letting you know
that you have been approved and may begin sending messages to the list, stafftalk@mapinc.org.
The lab for this lesson is optional. The lab shows you how to
modify Eudora so that many of the MAP processing tasks are automated. Some of
our current editors use them, some of them don't. If you're one of those folks
who feels a bit intimidated at moving files around - you should prolly move on to
the next lesson as you will still be able to format articles appropriately. Plus,
you can always come back to this lab when you feel more comfortable with all the
other stuff we've thrown towards you. BUT, if you are one of those folks who just
can't stand extra keystrokes - THIS is the lab for you.
