If the only way to save the server is for us to take it over - the we will..
lets hope Baylor does.

Hi, Bruce
As an eight-year grassu-list veteran, I'd have to agree with Bernhard
that the listserver has proven itself to be a versatile tool. One major
advantage that it has over most other tools is that it conveniently keeps
users involved who may not be currently working closely with GRASS, yet
still have much useful information to contribute.

I have a feeling that, if you _do_ decide to drop the listserver, someone
outside of Baylor will pick it up (heck, it could be me!). Please
consider whether you'd like to keep this aspect of support centralized or
not.

Regards,
-Malcolm Williamson

Greetings GRASS Users,

A new on-line forum called GRASSnet has been started that will replace
the majordomo mailing list. We have been working with USA-CERL on
just how to replace the mailing list, and have come to the conclusion
that a discussion board would be easier to manage as well as easier for
the
user community. The result is called GRASSnet which you can find at
the address:

  http://grassnet.baylor.edu

Check it out and leave us a message. We are not sure sure when CERL
is turing off the majordomo GRASS lists, but they have requested that
we get up and running as soon as possible. This system will also allow
us to respond quickly to any bug reports/suggestions/comments that you
may
have. It is also a great forum for interaction. Currently there are
forums for Users, Developers, Installation Tips/Tricks, and Research.
We are
planning to further expand this service over the next several weeks, so
any
suggestions and comments you have are more than welcome.

In closing, our team would like to thank everyone for their support!
