Hello,
Can somebody knowledgeable regarding how to get a project mailing list authorized and setup please provide a link to the procedure and mailing address for the person to be contacted?
Wikiversity has been experiencing slow growth and I think much of it is because interested people inexperienced with the wikimedia interface cannot find applicable discussions or material. I think a mailing list might serve as an extremely valuable community formation and coordination tool until we get some very active courses established to act as epicenters for newcomer activity.
Thanks,
Michael Irwin, aka lazyquasar or mirwin

While I would agree that a totally seperate mailing list for Wikiversity might be useful, Textbook-l has been totally dead and would be a very good place to at least start some of these discussions until such a list is created. BTW, there is quite a bit of discussion (from the past in the archives) about Wikiversity on this mailing list as well.
Thanks Robert!
I will check out the archives and subscribe to Textbook-l while we wait for action on the Wikiversity list.

There's also Wikiversityde-l, from what I remember. Might check that.
