Dear All
it appears some moves are already afoot to move maelstrom lists to
http://www.icors.org/ with archive preservation. It's not clear which
software will be running the email lists. Please monitor this situation and
if you need an alternative please let me know. I suggest that the listowner
downloads an archive of members details.

Hi Ben,

We plan to move all the active lists to a new Listserv run by ICORS, which
is being set up to handle all the maelstrom lists. It will have the latest
Listserv software and enough space that we can restore the old archives.
