Re: LF: *** NEW TI-92 MAILING LIST ***



 I thought we needed some new lists, this one, gets over 50+ messages a day.

It is my impression that we should keep all lists possible (i.e. all 
unofficial lists) on the lists.ticalc.org server.  This will allow a 
central site for information and would make less problems for those 
attempting to subscribe or unsubscribe, as it would all be done from 
one area.


Further, it sounds as though your fargo-all list would basically be 
the same thing as LF is now.  It is my feeling that the last thing we 
need is 2 copies of the same basic list.  This would only split 
discussion between 2 lists, and if one wanted to keep up on all 
possible information, he would need to subscribe to both lists, 
making it a futile move to create a second list.


Don't take this wrong: I think it's a great idea to create a 
restricted list for discussion of Fargo and so forth, but I feel that 
it should be created on ticalc.org and maintained by the current 
maintainers of the largest collection of TI information on the web 
rather than containing the list on another less-known server and 
having it maintained by someone else.


Does anyone else have opinions on this matter?
