[Apologies for the redundant postings, but I want to maximise the probability 
that this announcement is seen across multiple time zones.  There will probably 
be one more reminder tomorrow]  

Tomorrow, Tue. 30 Oct. will be the last day that the t... at list.cs.columbia.edu 
list will be operational.  If you didn't already see the following message from 
me, please read and subscribe to the new lists now.  You *must* subscribe to 
tccc-discuss to be considered a member of TCCC.  You should subscribe to 
tccc-announce if you wish to post or continue to see CFP and research job 
postings.

Cheers,
James

Folks,

Several months ago I announced that the TCCC list would be splitting and moving 
from Columbia to the ComSoc.  That time is now.  The new lists at comsoc.org 
lists are available for *immediate* subscription and use; the columbia.edu 
lists will cease to operate this week (but I expect a bounce message directing 
to subscription information).

I'd like to again thank Columbia, beginning with Henning Schulzrinne and more 
recently Daisy Nguyen for hosting and maintaining the TCCC list for so long, 
and Jim Kurose for hosting it at UMass in the early days of TCCC.  This is no 
small task with about 10,000 list members.

There will now be *two* lists: tccc-disc... at comsoc.org serving as the TCCC 
membership list for TCCC business and technical discussions *only*  *no* CFPs, 
and tccc-annou... at comsoc.org for *networking and communications* CFP and 
research job postings; this list is intended for the bulk of the messages 
currently posted to TCCC.  List information is at 
http://committees.comsoc.org/tccc/mailing_list/.  The new lists are LISTSERVs 
rather than mailman; this is what ComSoc runs.  You can configure your 
subscription for either individual message or digest delivery as with the old 
list.  There is an additional verification step for all postings that should 
resist bots and meta-list postings.  I'd like to thank Patrick Seeling for 
configuring and testing the new lists.

If you have public comments and concerns on this process, please first 
subscribe to tccc-discuss and reply to this email there.

As before, these lists will not be moderated, but there *are rules*, and those 
who violate them will be blocked from posting.  Everyone is expected to read 
and agree to these rules before subscribing: 


TCCC-DISCUSS: https://comsoc-listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?A0=tccc-discuss

The tccc-discuss list is for technical discussions of interest to the TCCC 
community and TCCC administrative business.

This list will only be open to individual subscribers (no meta-lists) and will 
serve as the official membership list for TCCC.  

CFPs, event, and job announcements are *not* permitted.  Subscribers who post 
CFPs and job announcements will be blocked, and meta-lists will be unsubscribed 
and permanently blocked.

To be considered a member of TCCC and to have voting privileges, you *must* be 
a member of this list.


TCCC-ANNOUNCE:  https://comsoc-listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?A0=tccc-announce

The tccc-announce list is for *on-topic* CFPs and faculty or research job 
openings in networking and communications.  

CFPs posted to TCCC must have *primary* focus on networking and communication;  
announcements for broad-based computer and technology events are *not* 
permitted.  In the case where there is a track or sub-event of relevance to 
TCCC, this is permitted, but it must be crafted specifically for TCCC 
relevance.  Permissible job postings are limited to university, non-profit, and 
industrial *research* jobs, including faculty, postdoc, PhD student, research 
staff, and research management positions.  

Announcement emails must *only* have tccc-annou... at comsoc.org in the To: field; 
announcements may not be cross-posted to other announcement lists in the same 
email.  

Furthermore, postings must contain (1) the name of the event (not only the 
acronym) in the Subject: field and the beginning of the body; (2) the 
sponsoring organisation named (e.g. IEEE, ACM, IFIP); and (3) the name and 
email address of the sender or responsible person *clearly* identified in the 
body of the posting.  

Postings must be no more frequent than *monthly* for a given event.  

Subscribers violating these guidelines will be blocked from posting.

Cheers,
James, TCCC Chair
