*Hi Conal, Hi all,

Conal I really appreciate your willingness to try to create ease in the
googlegroup. *(Though in this case I couldn't quite follow your suggestion -
but what I take home is that clear simple subject lines make e-groups more
of a joy for you - right?)*

In two other groups NVC groups I have been part of, the emails have
sometimes been awful, though so far this nvc-evoloves group has been nothing
but a pleasure.

I am interested if people have ideas about what makes an NVC2.0 e-group a
pleasure to part of, and how this can be sustained, especially if a new
person starts posting frequent emails with a lot of pain/satisfaction and
responds to other peoples posts with argument/analysis rather than silence
or empathy.

In fact I'd love to know if there are lovely ways of taking care in an
e-group. Any thoughts?

(I have seen something that worked for me among young Quakers in
non-cyberspace: choosing a group of 5 people to clarify the quaker style and
support those who are not clear and/or need help to adopt the house style of
communication - it was very beautifu, involved a range of public+private
strategies, and was supportive rather than oppressive. It also didn't create
conformism, but ensured that group communication flowed in and out of
silence with a wide range of confident and less confident voices being
heard.)

Ray
