[Beowulf] RFC: Policy on CFP's being sent to the Beowulf list

[Prentice Bisbal]

Chris,

I see nothing wrong with having them posted here. It might not be good 
practice to have one mailing list subscribe to another, though.

It's upsetting that none of them are relevant to system admins, since I 
get the impression that most of the active members of this list are Sys 
Admins more so than academic researchers or practicing computational 
scientists. I wish there were more conferences and workshops geared 
towards system admins, but that's a topic for another thread, and I've 
brought that up on the sc-admin mailing list already.
