Rachel,

One of the strengths of the UCOP list has been the wide acceptance of
different views. There is little chance of this continuing with a list
hosted by a "vested interest" such as DISA,
but yahoo probably would be free of this constraint.

The opposition to Yahoo is rather surprising. Why not give it a go until
there is evidence on which to make a decision?

BTW, I have just registered for the list and it seems to be working OK.
The other registrations that everyone seems unhappy with are not
necesary.

Regards,
Ken
