For the benefit of those who don't know, the old DX-LIST on YahooGroups has been shut down. The new DX-IS list has replaced it.
This occured for a simple non-technical reason. The amateur who was listed as the list "owner" became a Silent Key. None of the remaining moderators had ownership rights to the list. As a result, they couldn't make certain modifications or updates that only an owner can do. So, you might think, why not ask Yahoo to change the ownership? From what I understand, they won't, citing privacy issues. So the only solution was to create a new list with new owners. Ironically, DX-LIST still exists, but in a dormant state -- you can't join it, you can't post to it. But since only the owner can delete it... Those of you who remember how, ah, volatile DX-LIST could sometimes get, be advised that most of the active (and re-active) members of DX-LIST moved over to DX-IS. So don't throw away your asbestos (or EPA safe equivalent) undergarments. Remember: The more things change, the more they stay the same! 73, ron w3wn -------------------------------------- From: Zack Widup <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 2008/01/30 Wed AM 08:35:35 CST To: Tom Provost <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [DX-CHAT] DX-IS info First, log into Yahoogroups.
