Communication and Feedback are core values of the AM methodology as well as
this site. I invite you to participate today,
to discover what has gone before
in the archives, and to hopefully follow
our simple but effective etiquette rules.
You may also want to join our
Frappr Map
or sign up for the
Agile Modeling Newsletter.
To actively participate in the discussion, you need to
join the Agile Modeling (AM) mailing list hosted by
Yahoo. To find out more before

If you've found a spelling, grammar, or another small but important problem
that you don't think is appropriate for the mailing list? Then
email
me your comments.
Archives: What's Gone Before:
View the AgileModeling mailing list archives at Yahoo
(New list archive as of March 30 2004).
Anyone can view the list archive, but only
list members can post.
Mailing List Rules of Etiquette:
I hope everyone can follow common newsgroup and email etiquette
(feel free to suggest a good URL). Basically:
- Be polite
- Be polite
- Be polite
- Respect the opinions of others, even if they disagree with
your own. Remember, humility is a fundamental AM value
- Be open and honest with your opinions, we're in this
together
- If the topic of the conversation changes, and it often does,
please change the subject using the following protocol: "Old
Subject" becomes "New Subject was: Old Subject"
- Let's try to focus on ideas, not on marketing tools or
services
- When you respond to a message please cut your
response down to the minimum
required. We don't need to keep sending out
the original message all of the
time, just the pertinent text.
- Please feel free to announce events such as user
group meetings and conferences using ANN or CFP,
short for Announcement and Call For Participation
respectively, at the beginning of the subject
line.
- Please don't include attachments. For example,
don't post a Word
document, post the text of the word document.
Better yet, post an URL where
the information is posted.
- Once it becomes obvious that only a few people are
interested in a thread,
consider taking it off line.
- Avoid
Common Role Anti-Patterns in Online Discussion Forums
