Announcing a new mailing list called BLDG-RATE created to 
enable people to exchange questions and answers relating to 
building performance rating systems.

BLDG-RATE is a mailing list for people using building 
performance rating systems. Discussions of any green 
building performance rating system or building energy 
performance rating system are welcome. Some of the most 
common rating systems include the LEED rating systems (New 
Construction, Existing Buildings, Homes, etc.), ENERGY STAR 
(Label for Buildings, Target Finder, Home), BREEAM, various 
Home Energy Rating Systems (HERS), and Green Globes. 
Building rating systems provide a method to objectively 
grade, or benchmark, the environmental and/or energy 
performance of both commercial and residential buildings 
providing a score that others can understand. Discussions of 
design-oriented as well as operation-oriented rating systems 
are encouraged. Many building rating systems are in use 
today and  conversations relating to any and all of them may 
take place on the mailing list. People of all experience 
levels ranging from those just learning to experts are urged 
to share their questions and answers on the mailing list.
