Hi Joseph, I musc prefer freelists and I actually moderate a couple of list over there and find it pretty easy to handle.
I say go for it! I have never liked yahoo groups and only join them if I don't have a choice. >From Shaz.

I know, this is a short notice, but | since the list would be run by users and we want to keep the list format as | is (where people with computers or not can join us), I think we should move | on. I'd like to gather your opinion as soon as possible (likely before | Wednsday or Thursday) so we can have a smoother transition (I think Yahoo | Groups transition was not that smooth). | Benefits of freelists include more accessible archives, ability to add | people manually and more flexible group configuration. In short, this means | that anyone who requests to join the Freelists group can email the mods and | get added instantly. Also, Freelists allows creating webpages, which would | be useful for us to let people check archives and change email options. | Again my sincere apologies for this short notice and problems with Yahoo | Groups... Thanks for your considerations. | P.S. If we do decide to move to Freelists, those who are on the Yahoo Groups | will automatically get added to Freelists group (unless you say otherwise). | Cheers, | Joseph | | | | ___ | Replies to this message will go directly to the sender. | If your reply would be useful to the list, please send a | copy to the list as well. | | To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to | [email protected] | To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit | http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote | ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
