Bethany, yes, thank you. This is a very interesting offer. 

Everybody, please share with the rest of us your opinion about our mailing 
list’s domain. This need to move from the University of Notre Dame is a 
possible opportunity to have our list come from the cod4lib.org domain. For 
example, the address of the list might become code4...@lists.code4lib.org. If 
it moved to Google, then the address might be code4...@googlegroups.com. Is the 
list’s address important for us to brand?
