Subject: IETF HTML WOrking Group List
X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0c -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas
X-Comment: HTML Working Group (Private)
As many of you know, an IETF HTML Working Group was formally
constituted under the leadership of Tim Berners-Lee at the Toronto IETF
meeting this past week.  Tim announced this list as the official organ
of that group.  Its initial membership is comprised of the HTML-IG
members, but, in keeping with the charter of IETF working groups,
membership is open to all interested parties.

The following will comprise the introductory notice for the list.  I am
happy to entertain suggestions for improving it, as well as a volunteer 
to process and mount the hypertext version.

I believe that the configuration of our sendmail has been fixed to eliminate
the problem with headers.  Please let me know if you encounter evidence to
the contrary.
