I'm a TSO bigot from way bac,, and I would *NEVER* refer to VM as the dark
side. In fact, there are VM0 facilities, e.g., XEDIT, that I would love to
see in MVS.
I agree that z/VM makes more sense than z/OS if all that you're doing is
hosting LISTSERV, but unless someone is paying for the processor,
environmentals and peripherals Linux on an AMD would seem to make more
sense than either.
Are we losing our hosting? If not, why discuss options for a new host?
I've heard nothing about UA dropping us. Yes, Darren has retired, but he's
still willing to put in time for the list. If there is a need to move,
it's his opinions that matter most, and I haven't read anything from him
suggesting that it's necessary, or even that he's been consulted.
