Re: [RE] yahoo mailing list



John,
   Yes I was referring to this one. Message 44 mentions a 10us
requirement. I would like to see more technical discussion on the IEEE
mailing list.

Arthur.

Is it the list at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/REInterestGroup referred
to in DVJ's posting of 4th March? But that one just seems to have
discussion of when the "unofficial" meetings should be held so maybe
there's another one?

Having lots of reflectors where sub-groups have private discussions
unbeknown to the rest of the group might be thought to raise anti-trust
issues.
