A quick courtesy note as a reminder that discussion on Grant requests is<br>
happening on a separate list this year - enabling people who want to<br>
have a say on Grant funding to just follow one list, and not have to<br>
subscribe to linux-aus.<br>

<p>Why a separate list? Who decided the general membership doesn't need to know unless they subscribe to " yet another bloody list"  I must have missed that conversation on this list where members were complaining they did not want them here, after all its
 not like this is a high traffic volume list. </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I think that decision (if taken in private) is reversed, but thats just me...</p>
