| The Patrin
mailing list encourages active discussion about Romani culture,
history, traditions, customs, arts, current events, and Romani rights around
the world. It is intended as a mailing list for readers of the Patrin
to join with other readers with the same interests and discuss various
topics about Romani culture and social issues.
A mailing list is a subject-oriented discussion group where messages
are distributed by e-mail. The messages are posted to a list message server
by subscribers and then sent back out to other subscribers of the same
list. In this way, people who have many different kinds of e-mail access
can participate in discussions together.
The Patrin
is a closed mailing list and all subscribers must request permission to
join. When requesting to join, state your reason for joining, how you expect
to contribute and benefit from the list, and give a valid e-mail address.
Without a valid e-mail address you will not receive important mailing
list instructions or permission to join the mailing list!
A FAQ (frequently asked questions) message is posted on a regular
basis to help users participate in the Patrin
mailing list. At present, a digest of mailing list messages is
maintained and readable only by subscribers.
After your request to join the Patrin
mailing list has been approved you will receive e-mail with instructions
on how to participate in discussions.
