Hi, folks,
[Snip]
Finally, you may or may not have already heard about
this, but...
when I first tried to resubscribe to CLASSICCMP, it bounced with a
message that the list was not accepting new members. Attached is the
response I got from the temporary list owner.
To summarize, it looks like we may need a new host!
Gee - any one who has been unsubscribed and then had to re-subscribed
would already know about this. I found out about it that way.
I attempted to reach Bill thru all his email addresses and failed.
After querying cac at UW they informed me of the decision to drop the
list if it doesn't meet the requirements to be run on their computers.
Not wanting the list to move or to be taken over by someone else, with
Bill not answering his email, I queried cac on the requirements to
maintain the list. Catch22 - you had to be at or involved with the UW.
And then comes a message on the list from
Derek Peshel <dpeschel(a)u.washington.edu>
so I emailed him about it. He seems interested. Hopefully, he will take
over managing the list so we can all continue enjoying ourselves.

Bruce,
I'll go ahead and subscribe you to the list. The reason the list is closed
is because there is essentially no owner. The previous owner has left the
University of Washington and we are in the process of finding a new owner.
At this time we do not know if the list will be continued or deleted.

So, there you have it. Was anyone else aware of this?

Is there a "No Mail" option for this list?
Next week I'm going to Comdex, and can't let that much mail accumulate.
But it sounds as though anyone unsubbing now will have difficulty getting
back in.
