There is another use for this kind of thing. I'll describe
it because others may find it useful.
$GROUPNAME is the New Jersey Unix Sysadmin group (Like a local SAGE).
We were looking for a tally system to handle our RSVP's for
meetings where we needed to know how many people would be
there.
Right now we do it manually but soon I'll set up a mailing
list called groupname-rsvp@warren.mentorg.com so that people
can get on and off the "RSVP'ed list" themselves. The ".info"
file has directions, etc. to the event. We can then mail
to this list if the time/date/directions/etc change. In
fact, we can send a reminder on the last day, and include
directions, etc. in case people have forgotten, etc.
