###Main lists###

People registering on PublicLaboratory.org are auto-subscribed to these lists (you can uncheck if you want).

* **[publiclaboratory](https://groups.google.com/group/publiclaboratory)** - the main PLOTS list; if in doubt, post here! (530 members as of 9/12)
* **[grassrootsmapping](https://groups.google.com/group/grassrootsmapping)** - balloon and kite-mapping specific list. Lots of healthy overlap with **publiclaboratory** (486 members as of 9/12)
* **[laboratoriopublico](https://groups.google.com/group/laboratoriopublico)** - la lista de correo en castellano -- inactivo por ahora

###Local lists###

Lists for announcing/coordinating local events and meetups, and asking for local help. These are shown as options upon registering at PublicLaboratory.org. Some consistency in spam handling, joining policy, and naming will be very helpful as the # of local lists grows. 

Also we want to just be careful not to let research-related conversations fragment. Each list should have at least one moderator who's [responsible for spam](/wiki/moderators) and/or willing to say "Wow! Please take this extremely interesting conversation to the main **publiclaboratory** list!"
