Happy New Year, Nick. It was attached to e.g. Luke Turnbull's post.

I presume this would involve the installation of "majordomo" software
or similar, and the administrative burden of coping with spam, off-
topic messages, etc.
As an alternative, if sadly EMC-PSTC does go this retrograde way, we
could all simply move to the sci.engr.electrical.compliance (s.e.e.c)
newsgroup, which is receivable on anything from basic DOS software up
and at any connection speed. The only disadvantage is it is not
moderated, but it is a pretty low traffic group and there would be no
difficulty identifying professional contributions.

Bill

Effective today, we are replacing our web-based services.
Old: http://ieeepstc.mindcruiser.com/
New: https://www.ieeecommunities.org/emc-pstc
The archive has been moved to the new web site, but is
not yet up and running. We'll keep you posted as to when
we have it available.
This new site does not have listserver capability.
However, it does send personal e-mail notices (daily,
weekly, or monthly) when a discussion item has been
posted to the site. The notice includes a link directly
to that specific posting.
Furthermore, you can select the discussions which are
of interest to you (as opposed to getting all discussion
items).
When a message is posted to the site, the system will
notify the poster as to replies, and will notify all members
that the posting has been made.
The web-based service offers opportunity for posting of
papers and similar items. The site already has a few
contributions, some of which were moved from the old
site. We'd like to see an electronic version of the old
"Product Safety Newsletter" that had so many good
technical papers and news. We feel this e-community
is a good step to the formation of the Product Safety
Society. (You'll find news and listings of officers and
chapters on this site.)
Please check out the new web-based service. We call
it an "e-community." At the moment, if you want to
participate in this e-community, please contact either
of us Rich Nute or Jim Bacher, or Marilyn Catis at IEEE,
mg.ca...@ieee.org. (One of us needs to subscribe you
to the e-community.) To the extent that we can, we'd
like to move our activity to the web rather than use the
listserver.
If you have difficulty connecting to the site, or if you have
comments, please contact either of us, or Marilyn Catis.
Best wishes for the New Year!
