[Tango-L] OT: Workshop spammers

Suggestion.

Other lists I belong to have a message posted every month called 
"Administrivia" with the 'rules of the road'.  While there are rules for 
tango-l, many people haven't seen them in a while and forget them. 
Those who know them (or are irritated at the need for this) can just 
look at the subject header, delete and not read.  If they are updated 
the message subject is "Administrivia - updated."

Also, if we remind someone that their post is wrong in a private email, 
let's make sure we also include a link to the rules in the archive.

I know there's no moderator but a helpful volunteer could cut and paste 
the rules and send a single recurring email on the first of every month.

A little bit of netiquette.
