Thank you Michael!!!! (and big thanks to your proof reader <g>!)

It looks great. I would encourage all of our list members to migrate to the 
new list - it is very quick. It is probably a good idea to stay signed up 
to both during the transition (if you are so addicted you don't want to 
miss anything). The messages as they come in will have different headers 
but you will need to pay attention to where you direct your replies. Sorry 
to those already on both lists who will get duplicates of this...the sooner 
we get everyone moved the better.

Michael, I have a couple of suggestions (forgive me if they are already in 
the archives - I didn't read all the way). The archives would be improved 
if you could see a date and time the message is posted. The FAQ needs to be 
edited to reflect the new realities - it still refers to Sailnet and it's 
restriction in a couple of places.

Thanks again.

Well everyone, we know what happen last
weekend, the sailnet list took a hit. Not liking the list being down I
set up a new listserver under
<a href="http://www.rhodes22.org/mailman/listinfo/rhodes22-list">http://www.rhodes22.org/mailman/listinfo/rhodes22-list</a>
.

1)It is a commercial grade server controlled by
us 
2)It is fast, message turnaround is under 1
minute, I make sure it stays that way(sailnet seems to be 2
hours) 
3)attachment are ok(we control it) 
4)The footer lines are for the list benefit,
not to sell ad space 
5)when people sign up they get the rhodes22
charter 
6)The archive system is useable, bet even that
will be improved 
7)The control screen are simple and
understandable 
8)We control it to make it fit your
needs

Well at this point I built it, it is open to
all comers, are we ready for it?
