there is no reason for panic. i think that some are very relieved now and
want to get moving. the current admins will make sure that the handing over
of the list and everything is done in a proper and friendly manner, so that
the syndicate list can keep running its course.

the way in which the list has been administered until now is through an
admin account on the v2 server; this will be switched off as soon as a new
list-owner has been appointed who will receive all admin requests etc. -
please, let me know who this should be. it would be useful to have somebody
who knows majordomo and who can deal with config files etc. in the current,
heated situation i would be restrictive with the password but we will
obviously transmit it to you or whoever wants to take that responsibility.

the list itself is running on a server of friends of inke and mine here in
berlin. we did this because it is sometimes important to have easy and fast
access to the sysops, so it might be useful to try and find a new home for
the list which the people responsible for it have a close and personal
contact to. you will find that this makes life easier when something goes
wrong or does not work, and it may be more difficult to get the attention
of the berlin sysops if they don't know you.

greetings,
-a

ps: i'm filtering the list now and may not see everything immediately. so,
if i don't react immediately, don't panic. i'll be around for a while.



(nn, how deep is your love?)
