I know we are all friends here, but if you are sending out emails. Use the BCC function. If you do not know how to use BCC - ask google. He knows ;-)

Some people like to feature the electronic swaps on their blogs (as I do sometimes). That is fine as well. Just send your partners the link.

It should be clear, but if you are flaking here, you will get kicked off the group.
