[WSBAPT] Update on Changes to the RPPT Listservs

[Paul Neumiller]

Michael, thank you for the information.  How did the section leadership decide how to handle the membership requirement for those individuals who would be beneficial to the listservs, such as retired attorneys, senior title officers, and law professors?  Considering the many list-serv members who chimed in that they wanted the listserv to retain such valuable listserv members who are not members of the section, surely the section leadership addressed the issue.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Update on Changes to the RPPT Listservs

Hello Fellow Listservs:

I wanted to provide you all with an update on recent changes to the RPPT Listservs (both the Probate and Trust and the Real Property Listservs).

The RPPT Executive Committee voted to move the Listservs from an open subscriber model, where anyone could subscribe and participate in the Listserv to a members only model, where only RPPT section members could participate in the Listserv.

This transition will be accomplished via a two fold change. First, the online resources to access the subscription email addresses, archives, and Listserv guidelines, rules, and etiquette have all been moved behind the member login page on the wsbarppt.com<https://eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwsbarppt.com&data=02%7C01%7C%7C11d0c8e40ee148e1d4e308d6ac2e2778%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636885711561184044&sdata=l1jhOgmQ9eJgcHS10t%2FkXkcgc86otozy8QYJixpb4d0%3D&reserved=0> website.  This Listserv resources page can be found by clicking on the For Members tab and require your RPPT login credentials.  This will prevent non-members from accessing the Listserv.

The second change will be to ask subscribers to re-validate their subscription by going back to the Listserv page to re-subscribe, which will require login credentials that only section members possess.  Many of you may have already received notices asking you to re-subscribe or to re-validate your subscriptions.  If you have not yet re-validated your subscription, please keep an eye out for an upcoming message inviting you to re-validate your subscription.

We hope that these changes will improve the Listerv experience for users and that Listserv members will experience only minor disruption as we implement these changes.  If you experience any problems with the Listserv, please let me know and I'll do my best to resolve any Listserv issues.

Kind regards,
Michael Safren
Web Editor, RPPT section
