To remove your email and/or name from the list, please follow the instructions below for unsubscribing. Once you have unsubscribed, your information will no longer exist on the subscribers list.

The LOD list archive is available to all list members, and potentially anyone can subscribe to the list. The LOD list archive is not indexed by web crawlers.

Should you have concerns about your personal information in the LOD list archive, please contact the list administrators, and we will do our best to help. Contact information for the list administrators is at the bottom of this page. Please take these potential limitations to your data privacy into account before you decide to send messages to the LOD discussion list.
