For more information about each of these lists follow the list links.

Each Discussion List, with the exception of hwg-basics, is devoted to a specific topic. Guild members are expected to stay on topic within each mailing list; if you are unsure which list a topic should be discussed on, either write to an appropriate List Guide or ask your question on hwg-basics.
