Perhaps the only thing that we needed to do with the Oslist is to putting some 
light on it.

Asunto: Re: [OSList] This list serve is antiquated big time



Oh Yes... OSLIST started as a phone operated bulletin board. And for sure it 
doesn't exist in 4 colors/touch screen. BUT it has probably existed as long or 
longer than any competitors, is searchable, carries the 
thinking/sweat/arguments of those who discovered living in Open Space (that 
would be 1000's) and Harold (the most recent curator) has done a marvelous job. 
Thanks. Could it be better? Sure... but it has worked for ? (20??)years! And 
please don't fix it if it ain't broke...

Michael,

Thanks. I appreciate the kind words. And I also know I could do better. Thank 
you as well for helping out with the admin work for the OSList.

I couldn't see an easy way to see the count via the Archives. But looking at my 
own stash of the emails, I counted 42.9k messages since the first one in 
December of 1996 back in the old Boise State University LISTSERV 
([email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> ) days.

Great job, and big thanks Harold. You’re the only reason the list still exists 
in this open, free, independent way.



And just so everyone can notice the scale of the thing, how many messages have 
we posted here so far?



Cuz it’s not just about updating or swapping email tools, folks. Harold has 
managed this so that we still have and can search every message ever sent 
through the list. Amazing!



I know we passed 30000 some time ago but couldn’t guess what the total is now.  
I can’t figure where to look it up anymore. Do you have that number, Harold?



Thanks, Michael

Thank you Harold,

I love the simplicity that has been maintained for our email list, and the 
independence to the extent possible for us to be in a platform that supports 
us. Thank you for your work on this over many years, and also to those who 
preceded you.



A super super simple way to pay attention to the list, and to follow threads 
really really easily is to use the GREAT feature of the archives  
<http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]> 
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]. Every post gets 
placed in the archives, the archives are searchable. When something that is 
posted catches my attention, it is easy to go to the archives to see what I may 
have missed in the thread and also simultaneously by topic access what has been 
discussed in relation to the topic over the years.



in genuine contact,

Birgitt
