Join our Yahoo! Discussion Group:

Aims of the Group

The ASNSW Yahoo Discussion Group provides a forum for active and constructive communication between Members of the Astronomical Society of New South Wales. All Members are invited to post and respond on any matters of Society business or other topics of astronomical or scientific interest to the Membership.

Group Moderators

A small, responsive group of Moderators has been appointed to manage the day-to-day functioning of the ASNSW Discussion Group on behalf of the Committee. They introduce Society business and other matters for discussion and ensure that posts (particularly from new Members) receive prompt and helpful responses.

Role of the Moderators

The Moderators organise and manage Group resources (Photos, Files, Databases, Polls, etc) and work to strengthen links between Members of the Group, the ASNSW Website and Universe. The current Moderators are:

• Adrian Saw, ASNSW Member
• Lachlan MacDonald, ASNSW Website Coordinator

As well as input from the day-today moderators, the Yahoo Group benefits from the involvement of the present and immediate past Presidents of the ASNSW, who make themselves available to provide advice and joint adjudication (on behalf of the Committee) directly to the moderators, when required.

Membership of the Group

Only Members of the ASNSW are granted Membership to the ASNSW Yahoo Group in order to protect the confidentiality of Society business discussed in the Group.
