Actually, as I have said to John and David Hardcastle privately, I also 
agree that the list title is not general enough (and I'm now going 
public so that others are made aware that I am not just ignoring 
requests). I started the bulletin-board with a broad but inaccurate 
title, then moved to a more specific title for the google group, and now 
I am regretting my lack of foresight.

I don't know if I can change the group I set up, but anyone can set up a 
new one. My biggest concern is whether the list will be filled with 
bot-spam if I open it up, so I'd at least like to trial it with the 
"incompleteness" group first.

On a related note, I'd like to make a broadcast enquiry (since I don't 
know exactly who owns and manages the corpora list): corpora-list is 
very well run and maintained as we see zero spam, and I'd like to know 
if it is explicitly moderated. Could whoever owns the list please email 
me (directly) and let me know the details?

Cheers,
D
