Re: [nafex] Question about this list for subscribers.

1) I thought that NAFEX and Lawrence had some falling out, and went their separate ways, but I may be misremembering.

2) I manage some other mailing lists, and I'm willing to help manage this one.

3) My opinion is that lists like this work better with enough traffic, which is driven by enough members. Recently, traffic has been well below the optimal level, so I'm in favor of keeping the list open to anyone who isn't harmful. (Obviously, too much traffic can be a problem, but that's not where we are.)
