call for volunteers

[Dan Simoes <dans@ans.net>]

Guys,

The new server is up, and I'm beginning to prepare for the cutover.
This will still take some weeks as I have a lot of code building,
archive splitting and coffee drinking to do :)

Right now the box sits on a 2 channel ISDN line. What that means is
that it's fairly fast compared to dialup standards, but compared
to the multiple T3 that coimbra sits on right now, it will be slower.
I'm hoping this will get us by for a while, but if not, I will
have to look into other options.

At this time, I'm hoping that advertising will cover my costs
completely (nonobtrusive banner ads) but at some point I may
accept donations, perhaps with some benefits.  I'm still
thinking that one over and will keep you posted.

What I am looking for are volunteers to "own" portions of the
list and web site.  For example, John Q. Public would be the
listowner for the 20vt sublist and could also coordinate the 
website and FAQ for that topic.    I can think of a few people
I'd like to volunteer, but I won't mention names because we all
have different time constraints.

As far as my role, I will continue to oversee the whole shebang 
and manage the main list, but I think it's time I learn to delegate :)

Send me a *private* email if you're interested in this.  

I'm also still waiting on feedback from Audi about the name, so
that's one reason for the current delay.

Thanks,

| Dan |
