As long as we don't' have to subskribe to the list on google groups.

I have managed, and am managing, countless lists in the past, and am a
member of far too many currently, and consistently, without fail, the
subscription process to a google groups list is the most frustrating, the
most obtuse, the most annoying, the most blind unfriendly, most
inaccessible, and most irritating process I have ever had the displeasure of 
ever encountering or enduring.

Not that I feel strongly about the subject, or anything.

Take care,
Sina

Alex,

Thank you for your reply.

I would like to hear by everyone that is interested in replying to this
topic by the end of next week as to whether or not you care if we move the 
list to Googlegroups.  I will do what the list subscribers feel is best.

Again, thanks for doing this.  Personally, I would like to switch to
another list provider, like Google or Yahoo. For some reason, most anyone 


using a BrailleNote, as I am, will have the first character in their
subject line cut off when sending a message to any Freelist group, which
is why my subjects often seem strange. No other list provider seems to do 


this, plus I have heard bad things about Freelists from other people as
well.

Have a great day,
Alex

Hello Everyone,



OK, sit back and take a deep breath.



As usual, Freelists support has been shall I say not very

helpful.


Apparently, all three accounts that I have moderated messages

going to are not working (one gmail, one personal domain and one
university account). Also, Freelists support states that the messages can 


not be resent.


For this reason, messages sent earlier today will not be seen by

the list and for that I am very very sorry.


So, here is what I have done.



I have un-moderated the list for the time being.  I will keep a
very very close eye on things for the next while and if I see anyone going 


off topic and ranting or slamming others on the list you will be sent an
email and asked to stop. If you refuse then you will be removed from the 
list and not allowed to post.


I would also like to ask members of the list what they would
think of moving the list away from Freelists to Googlegroups where I have 
had a lot better luck in list control and actually things working.  What
do all of you think?


Again, my most sincerest apologies.



Jeff Bishop
