Re: Time to move this list to E-Groups

I agree with you that there are many benefits to using eGroups instead of
the current listserv.  In addition to fixing the "file attachment problem",
it also provides the ability to browse the entire archive of previous posts.

Earlier last Spring I reserved two eGroups for this purpose:
http://www.egroups.com/group/omega-list and
http://www.egroups.com/group/OmegaResearch.  I would be more than happy to
turn them over to the current omega-list listserv moderator(s) if they are
interested (that was the reason why I reserved them in the first place).

I notified the current omega-list listserv moderator as to their
availability earlier in the Spring, but I haven't heard back from them yet.

Regards, Matt
