Hi,

No reason to change server. Currently listserv is set up on our server and 
works ok.

        Ok. I could possibly contribute 10% of that. The only other thing that 
I could possibly offer is that we run LISTSERV here as well. I have the 
privilege of requesting a listserv. The big hang-up would be how to have 
“@arslist.org” to translate to here at ETSU and that it work both in that 
manner and for the server here.

        I remember that there was some back-channel discussion in the past that 
resulted in the setup that is currently running. Would you be willing to 
divulge what it would take for option 3? 
        Thanks!

Subject: [EXTERNAL] ADM: ARSlist Future 2017  
        **  
        Hello everybody,  
        It is time again to make some decisions regarding the future of the 
ARSlist. Our LISTSERV (the software ARSlist runs on) license expires in a 
little over 30 days. Dan, Misi and myself have been discussing where to go from 
here. We agree with the current (low) volume of posts that (Dan) continuing to 
pay for the ARSlist platform does not make much sense. Clearly the ARSlist is 
not providing the value it one was (when it was the only place to discuss 
Remedy topics). 
        The options for the future at this time appear to be: 
        * Move the ARSlist to a free mailing list platform. * 
        * Say goodbye to the ARSlist and shut it down all together. 
        * Money will come from somewhere to pay the license fee and the ARSlist 
lives on for at least another year. 
        There is a contingency with the first option. Assuming the platform the 
List moves to is not a hosted system in the cloud, Misi, who has been 
graciously hosting ARSlist LISTSERV on his server for the last year, will not 
be able to make a software switch until after the T3SMAC conference 
(http://tooltechtrain.com/) in November. If we give Misi a few days to hangout 
in Vegas after the conference, get home, and setup a new mail list system, we 
are looking at possibly a few week outage of the ARSlist while things 
transition. If we find a platform that is hosted and doesn't require shell 
access to Misi's server then I can work on the transition before the 
conference.  
        If anybody see additional options please let me know. Also I am open to 
honest feedback. At heart I know none of us want to see the ARSlist go, it has 
been here for us for many years. Shutting it down is not something to be taken 
lightly. However being practical, do we reject the idea of shutting down the 
List based on our feelings and not so much the value it is providing in 2017? 
Since this post is really a continuation of a conversation that started over a 
year ago, I wonder if maybe the time has actually come to retire the ARSlist? 
        Thank you, 
        Jason
