New Chat Exploder, Anti-Spam Measures
We're going to implement some enhancements to the exploder service. First, we are adding a new "chat" board for discussions of non-technical issues. The new board, "etc," will provide a venue for people to post messages that would be considered "off-topic" on the other boards. You can sign up for this board through the member portal.
We're also modifying slightly the format of outgoing exploder messages to eliminate a potential avenue for disclosing member e-mail addresses. These changes will be implemented by the end of January. Thanks to Olaf Corten for his suggestions.
