===== How do you communicate with staff? =====
 
* Create a [[Mailing_listOpen_Source_Comes_to_Campus/Logistics/Mailing_Lists | staff mailing list]] to help you communicate. Add your host-organizers as well, even though they are not technically staff.
** We use mailman for our lists. I've found that it's useful to set the default response to the list, so when people respond to emails they automatically go to the full list. It's also useful to set no max limit to email size, otherwise in long threads moderators may have to process held emails left and right.
* We recommend finding staff as early as possible (as soon as you pick a date). We try to achieve a 4:1 or 5:1 staff to attendee ratio. This is particularly important during the afternoon workshop, and we often have staff who only come in the afternoon.
