As a vendor-neutral organization, HL7 prohibits the use of its list servers to announce, advertise or endorse companies and/or vendors and their specific products, services, and/or events. This policy helps maintain a cooperative, open and non-competitive environment for the development of our standards. HL7 would prefer that conversation which denigrates or promotes specific vendors be avoided. In addition, HL7 will not tolerate the use of any profanity on the lists and failure to comply will result in a remove from our list services. We ask all list server participants to respect this policy and the other list server subscribers. Those who cannot respect this policy will be removed from the HL7 list servers.
Since the implementation of our new List Server, there are a few features that have changed. Updates have been made, for example, to the footers for all emails sent through the list server to accurately point to archives and unsubscribing. If you want to access the archives for a given list, and you know the list name, you can go directly to that lists archives by going to:
http://lists.hl7.org/read/?forum=[name of list service goes here]
so, for example...
http://lists.hl7.org/read/?forum=bloodbank
This technique does not log you into the list server, just gives you access to public lists and will usually be enough to get to where you want to be.
To view the HL7 Mailing Lists that you are subscribed to, follow this link. Provide your email address at the prompt.
There are additional features you can access that are located in every email message the list server processes out at the bottom of the message.
Please feel free to contact Karen VanHentenryck if should you have questions about the use HL7's list servers.
