<h1>Boost Mailing Lists</h1>
<p>The mailing lists are the heart of the Boost community.&nbsp; You may read
the lists via full-content email, email digests, or online via a web browser.</p>
<p>The lists are maintained via the <a href="http://www.yahoogroups.com">YahooGroups</a>
mailing list service.&nbsp; See their <a href="http://help.yahoo.com/help/groups/">Help</a>
pages for general support information.</p>
<h2><a name="main">Boost</a> mailing list</h2>
<p>This is the main Boost mailing list.&nbsp; It is high volume (over 1000
messages per month), very technical, and oriented toward Boost library
developers. It is also read by many other members interested in watching the
Boost library development process.&nbsp; Virtually all Boost decisions, major or
minor, technical or otherwise, are reached via public discussion on this mailing
list.&nbsp; It is where the formal reviews of proposed libraries take place. Subscribe or unsubscribe
at the <a href="http://www.yahoogroups.com/list/boost">Boost list home page</a>.</p>
<p>When we talk about the &quot;members of Boost&quot;, we are talking about
those signed up for this main mailing list.</p>
<p>For this list's members only, preliminary libraries under discussion are
available from the YahooGroups <a href="http://www.yahoogroups.com/files/boost/">Files
section</a> (formerly called the &quot;vault&quot;).</p>
<h2>Boost <a name="users">Users</a> mailing list</h2>
<p>This list is oriented toward casual users of the Boost libraries.&nbsp; Feel
free to post both &quot;newbie&quot; and more challenging questions.&nbsp; This
list is relatively low volume (less than 100 per month).&nbsp; Subscribe or unsubscribe
at the <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Boost-Users">Boost Users list home page</a>.</p>
<h2>Boost <a name="announce">Announce</a> mailing list</h2>
<p>This is an announce-only list for notification of upcoming software releases
and formal reviews of proposed libraries. One to three messages per month.&nbsp;
Subscribe or unsubscribe at the <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost-announce">Boost
Announce list home page</a>.</p>

<h1>Boost Moderators</h1>
<p>&nbsp;Dave Abrahams,
Darin Adler, Beman Dawes, John Maddock, and Jens Maurer are the Boost moderators.</p>
<h2>Moderator Functions</h2>
<ul>
<li>Monitor the mailing list to ensure dialog remains within the acceptable
boundaries set by the <a href="discussion_policy.htm">discussion policy</a>.
When discussion strays, use private email to gently remind, strongly rebuke,
or outright ban, as the situation demands.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Approve the initial postings of new (and thus still moderated) members,
and move members to the &quot;Group Policy&quot; posting status.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Administer the internal operations of the Boost web site, the main Boost
mailing list, the CVS repository, and other Boost administrative machinery.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Act as an executive committee overseeing important administrative and
policy decisions.&nbsp; Boost is a zero-budget organization with no income
and no expenses, so that eliminates the need for most management. Technical
decisions are worked out on the mailing list. The moderators handle the few
remaining decisions that need a definite answer.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Beyond the purely administrative duties, work to keep the Boost community
vibrant and alive. That may be as simple as saying &quot;thank you&quot; to
an individual member, or as complex as starting some major new
initiative.&nbsp; Do whatever it takes!</li>
</ul>
