There are plenty of things that both organizations can agree on. The  
only pressing problem is how to prevent anybody with a few spare  
minutes and some technical smarts from setting up a web site and  
collecting money "for cryonics research". I have created the  
following Regulation List for further discussion, since the CryoNet  
daily cycle doesn't seem to be adequate.



Privacy and junk-mail (SPAM) protection:

  :the 'From' address of the posted message is modified, so it  
contains the List address instead of the message author address. If  
your original 'From' address contained a comment (typically your real  
name), it is preserved. This mechanism 'hides' your email address  
(and your real name, if it is not included in the comment).  
Alternatively, you can reveal your email address by including it as a  
comment. For example, if the content of the 'From' header in your  
mail to the List is 'John Smith <>' or  
' (John Smith)', your name, but not your email  
address will be revealed. This is the recommended format, since it  
allows sorting of messages by author, but still protects your email  
address. Use a pseudonym, as a comment, if you wish to hide your  
identity. Person's needing a secure long-term address can contact the  
Listmaster.

  :replies are directed to the entire List by default.

  :List archives are not available.

  :only subscribers can post to the List.



  You can subscribe in one of the following modes:

  :FEED (default). In this mode, the subscriber receives list  
messages as they are posted.
  Mail-to: 

  :DIGEST. In this mode, the subscriber receives daily digest of  
messages (A new digest will be sent immediately when the digest size  
exceeds 1 MB or 200 messages).
  Mail-to: 

  :INDEX. In this mode the subscriber receives daily index messages.  
An index message is the same as the digest Table Of Contents, but it  
does not contain the messages themselves.
  Mail-to:

  The mailing list manager rejects all postings with a reply prefix  
(Re:, Re>, etc.) followed by an unmodified Digest Subject text.

  Messages must contain only Western European (ISO) characters,  
others will be rejected.
