[LUTE] Re: The lute list is retiring soon

2020-08-24 Thread Magdalena Tomsinska
   Thank you so much Wayne. Both lute list and your webpage have been a
   great help for me.

   I discovered your webpage as a new emigrant to Canada in nineties. I
   could not take my lute tabulatures from Poland: they were too heavy,
   and there were a lot of side trips along the way. I just had my basic
   bagpack, lute and guitar. So music on your webpage was just like heaven
   for me.

   Many, many thanks and best wishes for the future,

   Magdalena Tomsinska

   Hi -
 I have been running this lute mail list since 1998, and it has been
   interesting and fun.  Now I am retiring from my job at Dartmouth
   College, and when I retire the computers that I have run will be shut
   down.  This includes the  mail servers that run the lute mail list.  So
   it is time to retire from running the lute mail list too.  I will also
   be closing my lute web page, my lute tablature page, and "Lutes For
   Sale" web page.
 If someone wants to take up running the lute mail list I suggest that
   they announce it on my list in the next month, while my list is still
   running.  My list runs using software that I wrote, and I don’t
   recommend that someone else try to use it.  I don’t know the last day
   yet, but I will make an announcement when my list actually closes.

   Hi David,


   We very much appreciate your interest, and your knowledge base. I
   second your conclusion that this should be taken up by the LSA as
   opposed to an individual. However, the LSA relies heavily on
   individuals who are willing and have the time to serve the wider lute
   community by applying a skill set they already have to needs the LSA
   has. If you are open to being involved in the LSA in this way, do stay
   in the conversation! This isn't a job description just yet. It's
   guidance we might need at the moment, I would think.

I agree with David and Nancy that it would be great for LSA to take over the

that that LSA can fulfill.  I strongly support it.  I have no expertise but am

   Dear Wayne,
   Although I have been mostly a "lurker" on the lute list, I have read it
   and been on it almost since the beginning. It has inspired me, and kept
   me playing, at least sporadically.  Thank you for everything you have
   done to promote the lute and keep communication going among lute
   players and lute lovers! Enjoy your retirement, and hopefully someone
   else will step up to run the list.

   A reeally *BIG* thank you also from my side, Wayne.

   When in 2005 I decided that it was about time to get back to my lute
   "hopes" (I was 39 and had seriously learned guitar with a Narciso Yepes
   student20 years earlier), the list has been a constant source of
   informations and the chance to meet a constantly growing number of lute
   friends.

   Now, 15 years later I've finished my MA in Baroque lute at the
   Conservatorio of Pavia and dare say it wouldn't have even started
   without such a hall to ask (sometimes very stupid) questions.

   Therefore, THANK YOU AGAIN, Wayne :-)

[LUTE] Re: The lute list is retiring soon

2020-08-23 Thread Luke Emmet
Thanks Wayne for all your energies and efforts in running these sites. 
It is really appreciated!


On a personal note, I'd like to express a particular appreciation for 
the TAB software which sits within, and dovetails to my own open source 
lute tabulature software LuteScribe. TAB source is in github, so should 
remain accessible for many years to come.


Possibly the email list could be migrated to a Google group (free) - 
they are quite easy to set up, but do need an admin to occasionally free 
up a blocked message and to admit new users (or it could be auto-join).


As previously mentioned, there is an archive of the current list already 
here:


https://www.mail-archive.com/lute@cs.dartmouth.edu/

To my mind the pages about TAB and the downloadable music archive 
associated with it is of great importance and should also be preserved.


Best Wishes

 - Luke

I am sure I joined the list in 1995 or 1996. Your are getting old:)

I am probably one of the oldest members on the list - regarding membership, not 
my age :)

Arto must have joined before me, Caroline Usher used to be very active and the 
older members will remember those wonderful flame wars between Arthur Ness and 
a certain person whose name I will not tell you - he has died 1 or 2 years ago.
I think he was the only member that was expelled from the list.

20 years ago the was much higher traffic but loosing the list would be horrible.

By the way, Wayne, what will become of the updates for tab.

Regarding the mailing list we might have a simple free solution.

The newsgroup rec.music.early still exists and there is almost no traffic.

There are free newsgroup servers with mild limitations.
For example nntp.aioe.org does not allow more than 40 [forty] postings per day 
from the same IP address. This should be enough for everybody - even Tristan :)

I have posted a test message a few minutes ago and it appeared a few seconds 
later.

Configuring a mail client for newsgroups is very easy and takes a few seconds.

Of course, non-lute readers of rec.music.early might complain.
However, the last postings were:


Download Solution Manual Fundamentals of Gas Dynamics (apparently the wrong 
newsgroup)


4 postings "Francesco da Milano: Ness 28 = Chiesa number?" this would fit our 
list

1 posting regarding recorders.

1 test posting by a certain Rainer



Since apparently there are less than 3 [three] postings per month I don't think 
capturing the list would cause severe problems.

For people who have no experience with newsgroups:

You do not have to register.

They are not monitored (depending on server and list)

Attachments are not allowed (at least not on this list)


What do the "expert" think?

Many thanks, Wayne, for creating this forum and best wishes for your 
retirement.


Like others, I hope some sort of mail group will continue, and perhaps 
someone can host the archive which contains such a lot of useful 
information.

   It would indeed be very good if you could at least host the archive and

 1) I add to the chorus of thanks and well wishing. I've bought and

 a few instruments on your site.
 2) What will be the status of the mail list archive
 at [1][1]https://www.mail-archive.com/lute@cs.dartmouth.edu/ ? This
   is
 really a fantastic resource and I go there often to search topics
 rather than posting them anew. Would it be possible to at least host
 that archive somewhere? I do own a few domains and sites with spare
   GB
 and I could store it if I was shown how.
 3) I think it would be ideal if this list could continue and I feel
 it's complementary to the others out there including Facebook, Reddit
 and the Ning Lutegroup. If nobody is able to step forward by the end
   of
 the month, especially if the technology is too retro, some of the
   same
 functionality is available on the Ning site at
 [2]lutegroup.ning.com both in the forum discussions and the lutes for
 sale section. The disadvantages that come to mind of the Ning group
 compared to a mail list include a) need to sign up (although it is
 free) b) forum messages are not "pushed" into people's mailboxes,
   they
 have to come to the site and search them out c) we have had
   challenges
 the last couple years with the functionality of the site and parts of
 it not working, but that has vastly improved the last few months.
   Their
 3.0 version was more expensive but now they are offering it to me at
 the same price so I might be able to make it more slick. d) because
   you
 have to join, you can't just send people to the lutes for sale page
 without them signing up which they may not want to be bothered to do.
 Again, with the 3.0 update I may be able to make that individual
   forum
 open to non members to read.
 Advantages of the Ning site: a) you can include attachments including
 pictures and embed videos from youtube and vimeo b) there is
 moderation, and the few spammers that sneak through the challenge
 questions get their accounts and all their posts deleted with one
   click
 In any case, I started by saying it would be great to keep the mail
 list and lute for sale pages open but if that's not possible there
   are
 fall back positions.

[LUTE] Re: The lute list is retiring soon

2020-08-22 Thread Daniel Shoskes
   1) I add to the chorus of thanks and well wishing. I've bought and sold
   a few instruments on your site.

   2) What will be the status of the mail list archive
   at [1]https://www.mail-archive.com/lute@cs.dartmouth.edu/ ? This is
   really a fantastic resource and I go there often to search topics
   rather than posting them anew. Would it be possible to at least host
   that archive somewhere? I do own a few domains and sites with spare GB
   and I could store it if I was shown how.

   3) I think it would be ideal if this list could continue and I feel
   it's complementary to the others out there including Facebook, Reddit
   and the Ning Lutegroup. If nobody is able to step forward by the end of
   the month, especially if the technology is too retro, some of the same
   functionality is available on the Ning site at
   [2]lutegroup.ning.com both in the forum discussions and the lutes for
   sale section. The disadvantages that come to mind of the Ning group
   compared to a mail list include a) need to sign up (although it is
   free) b) forum messages are not "pushed" into people's mailboxes, they
   have to come to the site and search them out c) we have had challenges
   the last couple years with the functionality of the site and parts of
   it not working, but that has vastly improved the last few months. Their
   3.0 version was more expensive but now they are offering it to me at
   the same price so I might be able to make it more slick. d) because you
   have to join, you can't just send people to the lutes for sale page
   without them signing up which they may not want to be bothered to do.
   Again, with the 3.0 update I may be able to make that individual forum
   open to non members to read.

   Advantages of the Ning site: a) you can include attachments including
   pictures and embed videos from youtube and vimeo b) there is
   moderation, and the few spammers that sneak through the challenge
   questions get their accounts and all their posts deleted with one click

   In any case, I started by saying it would be great to keep the mail
   list and lute for sale pages open but if that's not possible there are
   fall back positions.

Hi Wayne. 

Thank you for the message, and thank you for giving us many years of service 
through the lute list. If it started as you said in 1998, that is 22 years. It 
seems much longer to me. 

The service you provided has been so meaningful in connecting lute scholars, 
players, and builders. I have made many lasting friendships and have been so 
thankful for all the information presented. Through this list, there has been 
such a great deal of generosity in sharing information, resources, and ideas. 
It has made so many connections for us all. 

Congratulations on your retirement, and thank you for your selfless commitment 
to us all.

interesting and fun.  Now I am retiring from my job at Dartmouth College, and 
when I retire the computers that I have run will be shut down.  This includes 
the  mail servers that run the lute mail list.  So it is time to retire from 
running the lute mail list too.  I will also be closing my lute web page, my 
lute tablature page, and "Lutes For Sale" web page.

  If someone wants to take up running the lute mail list I suggest that they 
announce it on my list in the next month, while my list is still running.  My 
list runs using software that I wrote, and I don’t recommend that someone else 
try to use it.  I don’t know the last day yet, but I will make an announcement 
when my list actually closes.

   Wayne

   Congratulations on your retirement: time to play more lute!
   Thank you for all your years of work.
   It will be sad to see the lute list go. Old fashioned in these days of
   Fb-groups, perhaps, but it suits me fine.
   Sad to see me friends  go.
   Let's keep in touch!
   David

   Dear Wayne,

   what sad news, I'm shocked. Having been a member since just before the
   NY tower terror, and have enjoyed immensly beeing able to communicate
   with this wonderful community that you enabled, I really hope that the
   lute list will continue in one way or another after you, because it has
   been such an incredible resource for all of us. I want to thank you
   FTBOMH for all these years, and all the work and energy that you have
   put into it. In the "History of the lute" you will definitely figure as
   a most important contributor and innovator, not least for the TAB
   program and also for all the other lute related activities. All things
   must pass, I wish they had lasted longer but I'm sure that the whole
   list will agree in sending you the best possible wishes and good luck,
   for what you will use your time for next, and hope that it will
   hopefully be lute related.

   Thank you for these wonderful years Wayne and all the best of luck!

   G.

Thanks for all those years Wayne. I have found the list tremendously 
informative and useful and hope someone else will take it on.
