The SeqFan mailing list is the traditional place where contributors to the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences discuss topics related to integer sequences. The mailing list existed long before this OEIS wiki, the new OEIS home, and the new OEIS foundation.

Please be polite and courteous.

Make sure your message is accurate and complete; read it before posting it. It is going to 200+ people.

Stay on topic, stick to facts, topics should be limited to sequences and mathematics.

Do not post too often. Take time to collect all your thoughts into one reply.

We have the capability of moderating posts from individual users, but we would rather not have to invoke it.

If you have a question about a particular OEIS entry, consider contacting the author through the "Email this user" feature in the OEIS Wiki.

Do not express opinions about which sequences are appropriate for the OEIS (leave that to the EiC's)
