+Many SIPB members and prospectives [use zephyr](http://sipb-www.scripts.mit.edu/doc/wiki/UsingZephyr) to communicate about
+projects, discuss what's new (or old) in the computing world, and
+generally keep in touch.  Here's a list of some zephyr classes you
+might be interested in subscribing to.
 
-* '''<sipb,*,*>''' - The general class for SIPB members and prospectives. General discussion.
+*Note*: If you're new to zephyr or to any of these classes, you're
+encouraged to just listen to the class at first and get a feel for the
+class's typical modes of behavior.  If you jump right in, you might
+risk accidentally offending someone.
 
+* **&lt;sipb,\*,\*&gt;** - The general class for SIPB members and prospectives. General discussion.  It's considered polite to always use an instance when sending to **-c sipb**. *High traffic.*
+
+* **&lt;sipb-door,\*,\*&gt;** - Receives a zephyr whenever SIPB's office door opens or closes.  Great way to keep track of whether the [[office]] is open or not.
+
+* **&lt;sipb-auto,\*,\*&gt;** - *High traffic.* Receives a variety of automatically generated zephyrs, including...
+  * **&lt;sipb-auto,sipbmp3,\*&gt;**  - Activity on [sipbmp3](http://http://sipb.mit.edu/sipbmp3/). *Usually high traffic.*
+  * **&lt;sipb-auto,sipb-door,\*&gt;** - See **&lt;sipb-door,\*,\*&gt;** above.
+  * **&lt;sipb-auto,sipb-www,\*&gt;** - Commit logs when changes are pushed to this website.
+  * **&lt;sipb-auto,backups,\*&gt;** - 
+  * **&lt;sipb-auto,nagios.stuff.HTTP,\*&gt;** - 
+
+## Classes for SIPB Projects
+
+In general, you should only sub to these classes *if and only if*
+you're interested in helping with a specific project.
+
+* **&lt;scripts,\*,\*&gt;** - If you're interested in getting involved
+with [Scripts](http://scripts.mit.edu/), subscribe here to see what
+the Scripts team does behind the scenes. *High traffic.*
+
+## Other Useful Classes
+
+These are not SIPB-related classes, although many people affiliated
+with SIPB and/or IS\&T listen to them.  In general, you should not send zephyrs to
+any of these classes.
