Steve, please go ahead and set up the new list. The list admin has had
plenty of time to fix the issue, and, in my opinion, is inexcusably absent.
This is the poorest administered list I've ever been on, and it's time to
call a spade a spade, and make a move.

Hi All!
Generally, I agree with others that 1) the list admin should be given a
reasonable amount of time to fix these pesky problems but that 2) if these
problems cannot be or do not get fixed then the list should move. The list
admin should participate in a change-over, if that becomes necessary. A
blanket email from him to the list alerting all to a change-over could be
sent and then the entire data base of subscribers uploaded into the new
list-serve - none of this requires positive consent by each subscriber.
In fact, many here may have noticed that the JAWS user list recently did
exactly this. And, I believe the JAWS user list was previously on the same
list serve that this list is presently on; and that it changed over to its
current, new list serve because of administrative problems with that
previous (i.e., this) list serve akin to the problems we see here and now.
All that said, I seriously doubt that the problems we are having on this
list are beyond repair. It does, however, require a bit of focused,
knowledgeable attention.
73,
Richard KK6MRH

Bob, I have noticed since Phil said his friend was going to help with how
the list is configured, that the people posting with a lot of extraneous
headers and characters has worsened.
If people are interested, I'd be glad to set up this list on a different
group server that is stable. Since the ListAdmin of this list isn't really
active, and therefore, since I don't have email addresses for the members,
everyone would have to move their on their own volition.
I've kind of thought about doing this for quite awhile, but didn't see any
sense in duplicating the list. But, since these issues keep festering and
apparently won't be corrected, I'm leaning toward creating a list if people
are interested.
Steve, K8SP
