I think that it could be moved to googlegroups.

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.

Jeff Bishop

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
