First, I don't know what you mean by "moderate topics" -- if this list has a moderator they should weigh in on how much work it is. As for finding info, I agree: mailing lists like this should have online searchable archives of posts [and many I'm on do]. As for contributing, I don't see how it is 'easier' -- to contribute now I can add to a discussion by simply hitting 'reply' and I can start a new discussion by simply starting a new message in my email client and sending it off [no need to surf to the forum website, login, and then "contribute"]. /Bernie\ -- Bernie Cosell Fantasy Farm Fibers mailto:ber...@fantasyfarm.com Pearisburg, VA --> Too many people, too few sheep <-- _______________________________________________ cryptography mailing list cryptography@randombit.net http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
