I have no doubt we could even run mail servers of our own, but be aware that 
then you are under responsibility to have this run with a acceptable 
professional look and quality, and that needs attention.

Towards that end, I encourage the EMC board's to devise, and implement:

- to transition the board operating software to something less susceptive to 
spam,
- implement a link checker for the www.linuxcnc.org web site to find broken 
links before users find them, which is an ongoing source of embarressment.
