The new mailing lists as described below have been activated
by February 1999
1- Structure of the Institute
(for mailing purpose)
In order to find a rule to build up mailing lists which are convenient
to everybody
we should divide our co-workers in some logical groups.
Please try to imagine a series of concentric circles :
- professors ( Bolognesi, Hafner, Vahldiek )
-
assistants (incl. "Oberassistenten" und "Gruppencheffen")
-
technical staff ( Lanz, Maccio, Schuhbeck-Wagner, Rossi )
- students
- guests (academic guests or similar)
- former members
-
externals (temporary staff for some special work, etc.)
Beside it we also have different working fields with one professor
as leader:
- mwel : teraherzt electronics (Prof. Bolognesi)
- emf : electromagnetic fields (Prof. Vahldieck)
Mind that having a mail address at our site does NOT necessarily
means to have an account on our computer system, as it is possible to forward
mails directly in our mail server configuration.
From the considerations above we can deduct a structure for the mailing
lists. Please see the following picture which just give an idea of the concept but is now wrong about the
position of "former" and "external".

2 - Buildings blocks

building blocks with which we can build up

one of the following lists:

mwel.assis + emf.assis |
| ifh.mitarb |
ifh.assis + techn |

profs |
| ifh.local |
ifh.alle +
studis |
| ifh.global |
ifh.local + guests
+ externals |
