Dear vocalisters,
There is important reason to move the list to the university: the tendency on the Internet to stop all free activities. Now the .com hype is over, companies realise they have to make money in an old fashioned way and that banners et cetera don't bring much profit. Probably the only thing that is interesting to Yahoo, is selling our addresses. Who knows how long it will be, until they will start charging us for the use of their databases and bandwidth?
Since Lloyd has the opportunity to move the list now, I would say: why not use it, while it is still possible?
The complexity of the administration task should not be overemphasised, as long as we have an intelligent list administrator (like we have now). Besides that I can always assist in the technical part of it, should this really be necessary.
Best greetings,
Dré
