Alan Lloyd suggested disbanding a couple of lists and asked a question
on financing:
>>thesite - no messages since Feb 2006
>>steering - no messages since April 2005 marketing - no messages since
March 2004
>>finance - no messages since October 2005
>>DesDev - no messages since June 2006
>>I suggest disbanding them and moving all these groups functionality
back to theforum.
Hi Alan,
I suspect the lions share of any discussions that would have made use of
those lists are currently taking place on the evolt IRC channel. In
other words, I don't think its so much that those groups or that
functionality is no longer needed or being addressed - I just think its
being meted through a different medium today.
I suspect you will hear more on that once the UK contingent 'wakes up'!
;-)
Since I'm not actually doing any of that work myself I don't have any
strong feelings on what vehicle should be used. If the folks doing the
work are comfortable with IRC, then I'm okay with that. If they want it
on a list so there is an archive, I'm okay with that too.
>>On another note how is evolts finances? Who pays the server bill now?
Hmmmm ... Last I heard I thought it was Dave Kaufman ... but I really
haven't been keeping too close a track. I'm sure someone who knows for
sure will jump in momentarily and set us straight.
Being world-wide means our votes and discussions take a little longer to
work their way through various time / space / tandoori zones. Lets be
patient. HTH,
RonL.
