I've purchased freelists.org, and it's now active for the site.  I would 
eventually like to move everything over to it, rather than the .dhs.org 
hostname -- I think it looks nicer.  

I don't want to disturb anyone in the process though, so I'd like any 
suggestions anyone's got, and if you don't mind your list being a guinea 
pig, feel free to jump in. :)  Whatever happens, there will be backwards 
compatibility -- freelists.dhs.org will always work.

So far, here's how I'm planning it: 
1) All new lists will be put under freelists.org
2) I'll take volunteers on anyone who would rather have the new hostname 
than the old one and doesn't mind telling their subscribers to use the new 
address.
3) All the now "legacy" .dhs.org stuff will still work, unless on a 
per-list basis, you'd rather it not for some reason.  

Everyone sit tight though, because only step 1's going to be happening 
anytime soon. :)

John
