Yep. This OSList works for me. Adding my thanks to the past
moderators,
the contributors, and Harold.
And I’m glad the openness is in keeping with this community. I
wouldn’t
change it.
And I was online back in the 80s and for sure then 90s when listservs
were
all the rage.
i wonder if the retro look and feel and operation of a mailing list
is
something of a barrier to entry for folks who never participated in a
listserv discussion—or who prefer a new fangled something or other?
I
wouldn’t change it, but could we find a welcoming (and open) way to
invite
more people? I don’t know what that is. Maybe just a youtube video
on how
to connect with the community via the mailing list. (Even having
Harrison’s
response on the history and openness of the list helps me connect to
the
list and not be put off by it. I appreciate it more after reading
this
thread, and I appreciate it before. So maybe just a way to to pin
Harrisons
words to the signup and archive page would be useful. I think just
pinning
a long threaded list of messages to include this whole thread
wouldn’t
really speak to the people who might be put off by long list of mails
in a
thread already :D — but a summary, or a video with some choice
quotes could
be helpful! ;)
I’m not passionate enough about this issue to be the person to find
an
answer. (Or is it not responsible enough to stick around on this
question.)
Don’t want to put more load on Harold either.
And I think this is a question worth asking at least, to see how
it’s
answered.
Cheers,
Steve

Oh Yes... OSLIST started as a phone operated bulletin board. And for

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]) 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]. 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,
