There were a bunch of acl's which contained only LIST:sipb-acl : sipb-athena-acl sipb-athena ACL sipb-minutes-acl sipb-minutes ACL sipb-hackers-acl sipb-hackers ACL sipb-developers-acl sipb-developers ACL gsipb-acl gsipb ACL uus-acl uus ACL usenet-acl usenet ACL I took all the lists owned by these lists and made them owned directly by sipb-acl. This is the current list of lists owned by sipb-acl: sipb-acl sipb ACL sipb Mailing list for SIPB (Student Information Proces sipb-soc Social mailing list for SIPB sipb-bitnet Discussion of SIPB support for BITNET communicati uus This is the mailing list for SIPB's /usr/unsuppor sipb-minutes-acl sipb-minutes ACL charon-maintainers List for maintainers of charon sipb-athena SIPB's redist of the "athena" list gsipb charon sipb group sipb6035 Subset of a Course List sipb6033 none sipb6004 SIPB 6.004 mailing list sipb6823 none sipb6111 SIPB members taking 6.111 (Fall '88) sipb-minutes sipb-minutes bug-sipb problems/questions with /usr/sipb usenet usenet sipb-developers SIPB distribution of developer's list sipb-afsreq-acl Spare list sipb-hackers SIPB distribution of hacker's list sipb-bugs problems/questions with /usr/sipb sipb-afsreq AFS requests for sipb.mit.edu cell Is there a distinction anymore between sipb and gsipb? If not, is there a reason not to combine the lists into one? Is there a reason to keep uus, sipb-grad-archive, and sipb-bugs? hackers@athena is public. does sipb need it's own piece? sipb-{developers,athena} should probably be owned by sipb, not sipb-acl There are too many lists dealing with sipb sources: gsipbsrc-acl gsipbsrc SIPB Sources sipbbin-acl sipbbin SIPB mailing list for people in gsipbbin gsipbbin-acl gsipbbin ACL gsipbbin SIPB Distribution Binaries I suggest making one list (gsipbbin, since that's in most common use now) be a group and maillist, and add people to that. Random historical lists: sipb-core-staff-acl sipb-core-staff SIPB staff sstaff-acl sstaff charon sstaff group gcharon SIPB-sponsored charon accounts sipb-staff-acl sipb-staff ACL sipb-staff SIPB people actively involved in stuff Someone who knows more than I about these lists should tell me what they're for, so they can be combined/deleted if necessary. On srz's advice, I made one "charon-maintainers" containing the charon stuff. sipb-staff has gotten to be used as "people who do stuff for the sipb and need generic bits" so I'm leaving that for now. web sipb-iap none chee should make this owned by sipb beacon-maintainers-acl ACL for bloom-beacon maint beacon-maintainers bloom-beacon maintainers sipb-afsreq-acl ACL for sipb-afsreq sipb-afsreq AFS requests for sipb.mit.edu cell Both of these lists need to exist, I'm sure. But, do they need their own, specific acls? having them owned by sipb-acl should be sufficient. sipb-ec SIPB ExecComm This list should be and is self-administering sipb-ec should be on sipb-acl. sipb-acl should be somewhere in the recursive acl of any sipb group. Two things: Is sipb-acl too big? is it possible that we might want to add additional layers? MAJOR CHANGES: sipb-grad-archive is gone. It's now charon-maintainers. It contains the people who were on sstaff or sipbstaff. More comments 2/17/92: hmm. then take, say, beacon-maintainers. Should I create a beacon-maintainers-acl which contains only beacon-maintainers and sipb-acl, and is owned by sipb-acl? then beacon-maintainers is self-administrating, and sipb-acl administrated, but sipb-acl doesn't have to be on beacon-maintainers. Does this seem like the right model to you?
