Rules of the Road for Tic-Tech (as of April 1, 2001). This document is
distributed to members on the first of every month.

Tic-Tech is meant to be a forum for discussion and sharing of technology
related education issues in Seattle - and beyond. This broad description
means that issues discussed may be wide ranging. Tic-Tech is a moderated
list. Messages submitted to the list are approved by the moderator before
they are distributed to subscribers.

There is a web site for Tic-Tech with lots of useful information about
the list: http://fp.seattleschools.org/fpclass/tic-tech/ This address
appears at the end of every Tic-Tech message.

List messages are archived on the web at
http://204.29.20.36:88/hypermail/tictech/ There is a link to this
archive from the Tic-Tech on the Web site. Messages can be sorted by date,
author, subject, or thread - really handy for looking though recent
conversations in order, seeing who has written lately, reading that
message deleted too quickly, etc. It is also real easy to respond to the
poster of a message from this interface.

Posting and Replying Guidelines:
 
1. Your name and email address must be included in messages posted to
tic-tech. Not only is it good etiquette and a nice courtesy, it makes
life a lot easier for those who would like to respond personally to you.
While not absolutely necessary, including your location and/or position is
also helpful to list readers.

2. When replying to someone's message, include enough of the original
message so people will know exactly what you're responding to. Do NOT
include the entire original message (we've already read it once).
  
3. Not allowed: attachments, commercial advertisements, profanity,
political agendas, flames, personal attacks, etc.

4. Please post messages in plain text only. For Exchange/Outlook users,
go to "Format", and then "Plain Text" before sending.

5. To SEND a message to Tic-Tech, email to tic-tech@tic.ssd.k12.wa.us

6. Be aware that a normal REPLY will go to the whole Tic-Tech list. It is
certainly possible to reply to only the sender - just be sure the address
you want is in the "To" field.

Joining and Leaving:
