That's fine, I hadn't considered that choice but I agree that it is a good one. Giovanni Corriga runs that list and I should think he would welcome this sort of traffic.

Hi Ken!
I directed people now to the communities mailing list. We will see how this will work. In any case we still have the option to just make announcements to the communities page and have another mailing list for our local blaber.
Best regards, Alex

Hi Ken!
Looking at the Squeak-ev list it shows, that there are many teachers and etoys friends on the list. I wouldn't want to disturb them with nerdy talk about Smalltalk. ;) But looking closer at the list of available mailinglists I found:
Communities A list for coordinating local Squeak and Smalltalk communities worldwide
This seems to be a good fit. If nothing speaks against it, I would direct people to this list to get infos about our meetings. Sounds ok?
Thanks for your help, Alex

You might remember me from the Squeak mailinglist, but lately I haven't been that active due to lack of some spare time. Last week we managed to host a first Cologne Smalltalk Meetup and I think it was a big success. About 15 people showed up and expressed their interest in Smalltalk/Squeak/Seaside. We attracted some of the local ruby crowd who were especially interested in Seaside. At the end everyone seemed happy and I was asked about a mailinglist, so that people could stay in touch and get know of further meetings. I'm just guessing, that you would be the right person to ask, if it would be ok to have a mailing list for the cologne smalltalk meetup under the umbrella of lists.squeakfoundation.org? As I said, the group is not stricly Squeak only, but I guess it is closer to Squeak than anything else.
Thanks and best regards, Alex
Hi Alex,
I would be happy to setup a new mailing list for you but have you considered making use of the existing Squeak-ev list?
