I thought the reason for being "pure-silver" was exactly that... "pure-silver".
Include the other lists and it ceases to be "pure-silver". i.e. it becomes
something else which is not what I thought I subscribed to.
What is the point of a committee? Surely the issue here is; Who is prepared to
host the list and under what terms? Theirs or somebody else's? My guess it
will be under their terms whether you like it or not.
So far we have one voluteer who has done something positive and another who has
offered to do something positive. Where do committe members come into the
equation? Under whose authority do the committee operate?
