24 May: FYI -- inertia and General Data Protection Regulations

Index of May 2018 | Index of year: 2018 | Full index


Hello.

This is to mention a change in the processing of emails that
have been designated for the fyi-list.

Until now, a significant portion of the membership of this list (423
people at the time of writing) have been members largely by inertia,
from days of being a student within TCD.

Now is a good time to ensure that members of the list have explicitly
consented to be members.

This is the last message to be sent to the list under the former
system.

Immediately after this message is sent, the membership of this list
will be altered removing all subscriptions.

If you hope to continue to receive messages of the sort that had
been sent (mainly opportunities for work and study in computational
linguistics, cognitive science, and cognate disciplines), then
please subscribe directly using the interface provided here:

https://lists.scss.tcd.ie/mailman/listinfo/fyi-list

You can subscribe and unsubscribe whenever you like.

If you hope not to continue to receive these messages, then you
might be pleased to know that you needn't do anything.

In any case, I hope this note finds you well and happy.

All my best,
Carl
