A few long threads I discussed things with Tanenbaum and a guy named

Also some responses from a guy named DMR.
Google. uh no, not a fan. Remember google plus? Google hangouts is
gone this year. I hold a grudge. Could go on. If they get bored with
groups, wonder if they'll do a better job preserving it.

I hope this group can continue to maintain the same mailer, so that there
is an archive continuity.
I know from my own network that hosting services can be a thankless job,
but hand over the content to a "free" resource is essentially giving away
that which makes this a special, I dependent group.
