[Corpora-List] Enough already

That's a bit harsh.  Just for curiousity, I searched Google Groups to find discussions of the "peer review process", and found them on quite a few discipline-specific lists. 

However, corpora list is one of many  lists intended primarily as a bulletin board  for people with similar interests, in this case publishing announcements of conferences, corpus and tool availability,  and employment opportunities, and providing a forum for relatively brief  interactions on technical issues.   Long "philosophical" discussions are really not suitable here.

Other lists *are* intended for lengthy, wide ranging conversations.  One that I subscribe to uses a specialized list-management facility (not publicly available)  to impact on subscriber inboxes by allowing people to stop receiving particular threads.

Hello!


I vote for ending this thread. Maybe those who want to continue can find a chat-room somewhere? E.g. facebook, twitter, etc.


Best,

But there is a huge difference between voluntarily posting preliminary
working papers on some web site and being *forced* to have one's
rejected papers posted on a public web site.

Compromise:  Let authors indicate whether they would like to have
their rejected papers posted.  The authors should have that option.
